“To say that Jordan Spieth’s career is something quite remarkable, would be the understatement of the century. His winnings last year alone totaled $23 million – not bad for a 22-year-old. But there’s no obnoxious athlete ego here.”

Jordan Spieth is one of the youngest and most successful pro golfers of our time. But there are few things about Jordan Spieth many don’t know.
