Hilary Swift for The New York Times

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. — Shortly after he completed his final round at the P.G.A. Championship on Sunday night, Dustin Johnson, who has won one major in his career, was asked how it felt to complete the Grand Slam of runner-up finishes.

“Yay,” said Johnson, who became the eighth player to finish in second at all four major championships. “I’m so excited.”

Johnson, who finished tied for second at the Masters last month, offered a brief smile. Having started the day seven shots behind the leader, Brooks Koepka, Johnson lost by two strokes after bogeying two of his last three holes.
