ATLANTA -- Jordan Spieth treated the Tour Championship as if it were a major. He played like it was, too.
Looking for a fitting finish to a sensational season, Spieth poured in putts from all over East Lake and never gave Henrik Stenson or anyone else much of a chance Sunday. His final stroke was an 8-foot par putt that was right in the heart for a 1-under 69, and he leaned back with a smile of pure satisfaction.
The 22-year-old Texan became golf's first $22 million man -- a PGA Tour record with just over $12 million in prize money, and the $10 million bonus for the FedEx Cup.
"This is incredible," Spieth said. "This is an event where we approach it like a major championship because we know this is possible at the end of it."
