Jordan Spieth: Player Profile

 

Who is Jordan Spieth?

Born in 1993, Jordan Spieth has gone on to become one of the PGA Tour’s stars in recent years, notching a number of tournament victories, including three major titles.

Spieth made his name on the PGA Tour two weeks before his 20th birthday when he won the John Deere Classic. He defeated Zach Johnson and David Hearn in a five-hole playoff, becoming the first teenager to win on the Tour since 1931.

The Jordan Spieth PGA profile is one to treasure. He’s won 13 times including three major victories. The first came at the Masters Tournament in 2015, where he became the first wire-to-wire winner at Augusta National in almost 40 years. 

He also won the US Open two months later, before lifting the Claret Jug in 2017 for his third major crown.

Spieth has also enjoyed success on the team stage, as part of a formidable partnership with close friend Justin Thomas. He has played in four Ryder Cups, winning twice, and was on the winning side in all four of his Presidents Cup appearances.
