Is the young Jordan Spieth the next Tiger Woods for golf?

Jordan Spieth won the Masters last week in dominating fashion by four shots over Justin Rose and Phil Mickelson! Phil and Justin finished in a tie for second at 14 under par! That score would have won most Master's tournaments, but not this one. Jordan Spieth led the tournament wire-to-wire. He is the first person to do this since Raymond Floyd in 1976!

I knew it was going to be his win to claim when his second shot on the ninth hole on Sunday stayed on the top of the hill and didn't roll down away from the hole. Had that happened, his next shot would have been very difficult to execute, putting his sizable lead in jeopardy.

Tiger Woods performance (he tied for 17th) was also pretty impressive given how he had played this year leading up to the Masters. If it wasn't for Jordan Spieth's great performance, Woods would have had a legitimate chance to win the tournament. But for this year's Masters the glory goes to a much deserved player, Jordan Spieth!

Jordan is the second youngest person to win the Masters at the age of 21. And it was Tiger Woods, who was just a little bit younger than Spieth that won it in 1997. He also tied Tiger Woods record of 18 under par for the lowest four round score ever at Augusta. All pretty cool statistics. I wanted to add that I hope Jordan uses some of his winnings and new found fame to help his younger sister who has special needs and people like her in his hometown of Dallas, Texas and maybe even around the globe.

This part of the story hits close to home with me because of my own situation, and when the spotlight can fall on building awareness for accepting and helping individuals with disabilities I'm all for it.

The NBA regular season came to an end this week, so I now feel free to get something off my chest. There needs to be a change to the draft process for the NBA. It's time to get rid of the lottery system that the NBA uses for selections.

Every other major sport uses the team with the worst record to determine who gets the first pick in the annual draft. The 76ers are being accused of intentionally losing games, but a lot of teams are doing this. If you went back to the usual way of conducting a draft, only the worst two teams would even think about losing games intentionally. Anyone agree with me?
