Spieth has not been at the height of his powers for years, but an improved all-around game and welcoming Quail Hollow Club set up nicely for history to be made

Spieth, a three-time major champion, already has wins at the Masters (2015), U.S. Open (2015) and The Open Championship (2017). Now nearly a decade later, the PGA Tour star is still on the hunt for his career grand slam.

We are at a point now, as a result of this phenomenon, where the Career Grand Slam is at the forefront of our minds like never before. When Tiger Woods climbed the mountain back in 2000 we did not have the internet the way we do now or social media or television coverage discussing the idea around the clock.
