World number two Jordan Spieth has clinched the FedEX Cup title, his fifth victory of the ongoing golf season, in the Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club, Atlanta.

With the win, the 22-year-old, who won Masters and US Open this season, recaptured his world number one rank, Sport24 reported.

Spieth scored a closing 69 to finish nine under par and a four-shot win over Sweden's Henrik Stenson, New Zealand's Danny Lee and England's Justin Rose.

Following his win, Spieth said this year has been unreal for him, adding that he worked really hard for this and his hard work paid off.

Spieth will now head into The President Cup tournament with top-spot at Jack Nicklaus Golf Club, Korea.
