Okay, so, I’ve been digging into Dustin Johnson’s career lately, and I wanted to share what I found about his major wins. It’s pretty interesting stuff, let me tell you.
First off, I started by looking into how many majors this guy has actually won. Turns out, Dustin Johnson has snagged two major championships. Not too shabby, right? The first one was the U.S. Open in 2016, and then he went on to win the Masters in 2020. Both pretty big deals in the golf world.
Then I got curious about when he even started playing. I mean, did he start young or something? I discovered that the guy didn’t even pick up a golf club seriously until he was like 19 or 20. He said in an interview that “Golf wasn’t cool back then.” That’s crazy, right? But he got good, real fast. He even ended up being the head pro at some club.
After that, I wanted to see how much money he’s made from all this. Man, it’s a lot. In 2022, just from LIV Golf, he made over $11 million! And from the PGA in 2020, he earned over $20 million, with $15 million of that coming from the TOUR Championship. Can you imagine?
Major Wins Breakdown
So, to break it down, here’s what I found about his major wins:
- 2016 U.S. Open: This was his first big win. I watched some old footage, and it was a pretty intense tournament.
- 2020 Masters: This one was special because of the whole pandemic thing. He played really well, and it was a big moment for him.
I also found out he won some European Tour title in 2019, the Saudi International. I didn’t look too much into that, but it’s another win under his belt.
Anyway, I just wanted to share my little research project on Dustin Johnson’s major wins. It’s amazing to see how someone who started playing golf relatively late could achieve so much. It makes you think, maybe it’s never too late to pick up something new, you know?
