Jordan Spieth is a step away from history. Spieth, won last month's Open Championship, needs a PGA Championship to complete the career Grand Slam. There are five golfers in the Masters Era to accomplish the career Grand Slam: Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, and Tiger Woods. The 24-year-old Spieth has an opportunity to become the youngest of the illustrious group to accomplish the feat.
Spieth and Rory McIlroy are two of the favorites to win the PGA Championship. McIlroy missed the cut at last year's tournament but after a strong finish at the Open, McIlroy will be a candidate to spoil any celebration that is planned for Spieth.
