Jordan Spieth caps incredible season with win at the TOUR Championship
09.27.2015 | Men's Golf
Longhorn Jordan Spieth capped a year full of new records by becoming the youngest player ever to win the FedExCup and the TOUR Championship.
ATLANTA, Ga. - A magical season for Jordan Spieth ended Sunday with the 22-year-old Texan claiming the biggest prize on the PGA TOUR.
Spieth shot a 1-under 69 to finish at 9 under and win the TOUR Championship by Coca-Cola by four strokes. In the process, he also clinched the FedExCup and its $10 million bonus, while likely ending any discussion about the Player of the Year, with voting beginning Sunday night and the results announced later this week.
