7 PGA TOUR victories including two major championships is better than most golfers see in their career, let alone in their first two seasons on TOUR.

Spieth was the only player in Masters history to reach 19-under. He’s the second person in 100 years to go wire-to-wire at a major as a 21 year old and the first since 1976 to go wire-to-wire at Augusta National.

His collective score (-54) at the four majors is the lowest of any golfer in a single season. Out of the 406 golfers Spieth faced in majors, he beat 402 of them. That means he beat 99% of golfers at majors this season.

His $12,030,465 (which doesn’t include the $10 million for the FedEx Cup) is the most earnings of a single season in PGA TOUR history.

Spieth is the youngest player to win 5+ times since 1929, the youngest to win two career majors since 1922, the youngest to win the Masters and U.S. Open in a career, and the second youngest player to reach No. 1 golfer in the world next to Tiger Woods.
