Jordan Speith joined Tiger Woods as the only players to win a Masters green jacket at the age of 21, and he tied his course record of -18. Take a look at the new face in golf.

Not only did Speith shock the field with his performance at such a young age, he led on every single day, which had not been done in 39 years. Some of the game's hardest hitters made a run at him all throughout the weekend, but he made fantastic artisans like Phil Mickleson and Justin Rose sit back in awe as he continued to put his score farther and farther out of touch.

Going onto the 18th green, Speith had a makeable putt that would have given him the all-time 72-hole record at Augusta. For the first time in almost the whole week, he let his emotions (of joy) get to him. Fortunately for Speith, the bogey didn't cost him a trophy, it just cost him sole ownership of the record.

Last year's champion, Bubba Watson, was there to slip on the green jacket. It could possibly be the first of several for the freakishly cool-headed fresh face in the golf world.

Speith was runner up in last year's Masters and brought a win and two runner up finishes leading into this year's competition. With all the pressure of being the streaky golfer, he held off the demons in the details to put together a masterfully crafted series of rounds. Even his misses were salvageable, which golfers know is a minor beauty.

Not only is Speith a shot in the arm for the game of golf, take this into factor. When Tiger Woods posted his -18 in 1997, he won by 12 strokes. Speith only won by four. The game as a whole is coming along, and the competition is pushing each other.

Speith, the 21-year-old who left the Texas Longhorns due to his prodigal talent, along with his British counterpart, Rory McIlroy, could propel the game into the next generation...or already are. After Speith's magnum opus on the highest stage, they will most likely be the #1 and #2 ranked players in the world. McIlroy is only 25, and Speith is even younger.

The burden of expectation will now be riding on Speith's shoulders, but his calm demeanor and short memory on the course sent a loud, resounding signal around the golf world.

The next thing on his mind is what to serve at his dinner and where to hang his green jacket, which very few people ever get to decide.
