Razor-sharp Jordan Spieth continues his run at history this week when he competes in the British Open.

Spieth has gone from sharp, young up-and-comer to the pre-eminent player in the world. He ran away with the Masters, won the U.S. Open, and if that wasn't enough, he just won the John Deere Classic in Silvis, Illinois, Sunday.

Spieth is officially the No. 2-ranked golfer in the world.

Additionally, Rory McIlroy is not going to be defending his title at St. Andrews. The world's top-ranked golfer ruptured a ligament playing soccer and is not able to play.
