The men's 2014-2015 wrap-around professional golf season witnessed some spectacular play and the emergence of a new "Big Three" which is likely to dominate the game for several years to come. Jordan Spieth's five-win season was historic, including two majors, the Tour Championship and FedEx Cup. Jason Day finally broke from the ranks of the best players not to have won a major to win the PGA Championship and play outstanding golf during the final two months of the year. And finally, Rory McIlroy, who entered the year with the world's #1 ranking, only to loose it largely due to a sprained ankle injury in late July.
What is the net-net for men's pro golf as we wrap-up the year: Men's professional golf is as strong as it has been since Woods-Mickelson-Singh trio dominated the game almost a decade ago. Moreover, the relative "youthfulness" of the new trio - Spieth, 22/Day 27/McIlroy 26 - bodes very well for years to come. Congradulations all-around. So who might be the break-through player next year? Send your picks to the Pro Golf Tour.
