Spieth settling in with green jacket on whirlwind tour

The Green Jacket sparkled in the Big Apple.

Less than 24 hours after Jordan Spieth thumped Augusta National Golf Club in his record-setting victory in the 79th Masters, he hopped aboard a plane Monday and touched down in New York for a non-stop tour chalk full of appearances on various sports, news and entertainment shows.

The world's No. 2 and second-youngest Masters winner did interviews with ESPN Radio, NBC Nightly News and Fox. There was a photo op and lighting ceremony at the Empire State Building, which was lit green in his honor. And of course he met up with David Letterman for his late show.
