Jordan Spieth wins PGA Tour player of the year (The Associated Press)

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Jordan Spieth was voted PGA Tour player of the year Friday, giving him a sweep of all the significant awards.

The PGA Tour does not disclose how many votes Spieth received from the players, though the 22-year-old Texan removed any suspense last week with his four-shot victory in the Tour Championship to win the Fed Ex Cup.

Spieth had five wins this year, including the Masters and U.S. Open. He is the youngest player since Tiger Woods (21) to win the Jack Nicklaus Award as player of the year.
