Dustin Johnson hangs on for FedExCup title, $15 million prize

It got a little closer than expected toward the end, but ultimately the best player of the playoffs walked away with the season-prize. Here's how things ended up at the Tour Championship, where world No. 1 Dustin Johnson maintained his lead and left with $15 million:

Leaderboard: Dustin Johnson (-21), Xander Schauffele (-18), Justin Thomas (-18), Jon Rahm (-17)

What it means: Johnson started the week with a two-shot lead, and he began the final round five shots clear after factoring in the staggered start. While Schauffele and Thomas both cut into Johnson's lead during a Labor Day finish at East Lake Golf Club, Johnson fended off the competition with a bogey-free back nine to close in 68.
