DJ, up 2, enjoying how much he's thinking at Chapultepec

MEXICO CITY – Dustin Johnson is enjoying thinking.

He said so.

The 2017 winner at the WGC-Mexico Championship is once again atop the leaderboard following bogey-free rounds of 64-67 at Club de Golf Chapultepec. Through 36 holes, he leads Rory McIlroy and Matt Kuchar by two at 11 under par.

While this golf course does afford DJ some opportunities to be aggressive, it also takes the driver – his most powerful weapon – out of his hands on a number of tees. The common assessment is that Johnson plays a ball-go-far brand of golf, a bomb-and-gouge style that relies very little on strategy or management.
