Jordan Spieth’s ascent in golf has been a linear one, a straight line from junior golf dominance to joining the elite in professional golf, while constructing a record of achievement most won’t achieve in a lifetime.

He was 16 when he tied for 16th in his PGA Tour debut, 20 when he won for the first time on the PGA Tour, 21 when he won the Masters and the U.S. Open, 23 when he won the Open Championship.

A native Texan, Spieth enrolled at the University of Texas and in his freshman season, he was the Big 12 Conference player of the year and helped the Longhorns win the NCAA championship.

After the first semester of his sophomore year at Texas, Spieth turned professional, and playing on sponsor exemptions early in 2013, he tied for second in the Puerto Rico Open and the following week tied for seventh in the Tampa Bay Championship to jump start his PGA Tour career.

In his first six season on the PGA Tour, he won 11 tour events and two Australian Opens.

Spieth also has been a part of every national team for which he has been eligible, a member of U.S. Presidents Cup teams in 2013, 2015 and 2017, and a member of U.S. Ryder Cup teams in 2014, 2016 and 2018.
