Caught a few moments of him on CNBC's Squak Box this morning.

The kid is mature beyond his years. Amazing how well composed he is in front of the camera. He articulates his thoughts / responses very well. There is hope for America if we have more young guys and gals like this.

I was no where near close to that maturity level in my early 20s.

Yeah, he is pretty much the definition of awesomeness.

One of my friends was best friends with him in HS and is in his Master's entourage every year. Said that the way he comes across, the story about his sister and all that isn't PR but just a reflection of him being an awesome guy.

He is well educated coming from an elite prep school Jesuit out of Dallas.

Agree that he's a whiff of fresh air compared to the bad behavior of so many professional athletes.

Considering the etiquette and limited access to golf, it is not surprising that golfers are like this.

Just look at the Tiger Woods story. Woods does what many athletes do (sleep around/cheat on spouse) and it is absolutely blown up. He just is held to a higher standard since he is a golfer.

That and he went hunting for wildebeast as a near billionaire

the house he just bought is

dude has it all at the moment. after its all said and done, his masters win will prob put 20 mill+ in his pockets from endorsements and bonuses alone.

He seems to be a stand up guy...I feel bad for not pulling for him Sunday. Just wanted it to be a little more competitive than it was, but props to Jordan.

It was pretty funny to see Joe giddy as hell talking to him...he wouldn't even let Becky or the other guy get a word in haha. Joe loves golf.

When I was 21 I lived off a weekly allowance from my parents and washed my sheets once a semester. But I had more hair than Spieth.
