After taking out the Masters last year, Spieth became the first man since Tiger Woods in 2002 to win the first two majors of a season, pipping fellow American Dustin Johnson by one stroke at Chambers Bay.

This week, Spieth will tee it up at the picturesque Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania looking to vanquish the demons of his April meltdown at Augusta.
