American golfer Jordan Spieth has been voted as the PGA Tour's Player of the Year after lifting five titles this season, including the Masters and the US Open.

The 22-year-old world number one concluded his stellar 2015 campaign in grand style after securing FedExCup title in addition to the 10 million dollars jackpot.

Besides clinching first two majors of the season, Spieth also finished one shot back from competing in the British Open playoff in July and was second at the PGA Championship in August, Sport24 reported.

Spieth, who accumulated 22 million dollars as earning this season, was adjudged as the worthy contender to the coveted honour after beating rivals Jason Day and Rory McIlroy in a vote by Tour members.
