Dustin Johnson Ends Disappointing Players Championship with 1-Under Final Round
The 2021 Players Championship ended as it began for Dustin Johnson: with a disappointing whimper.
Johnson carded a one-under 71 in Sunday's final round, going into the clubhouse at one under for the tournament and tied for 53rd place. It is the world No. 1's lowest finish in any of golf's big five events (the four majors and The Players Championship) since he missed the cut in the 2018 Open Championship.
Johnson's wild round included six birdies and five bogeys. The back nine saw DJ par only one hole—the par-five 11th—while birdieing or bogeying the other eight.
