Jordan Spieth is the best thing that’s happened to golf since Tiger Woods made his pro debut in 1996. He’s the most riveting name in the sport, he’s won two majors this year, and he did it all as a 21-year-old who technically still could be in college.
So, clearly, the best way to spend his 22nd birthday was by wearing a chicken hat and hanging out with his sister, Ellie.

Ellie suffers from a neurological disorder, according to Golf Digest, and Spieth’s incredibly humble, generous personality largely stems from the relationship he had with her growing up.
Spieth also received a birthday surprise from Under Armour, which gave him a batch of golf balls holding personal inscriptions tweeted from fans.

Let’s hope 22 — like 21 — is more magical than miserable for golf’s wonder boy.
