Dustin Johnson got off on the wrong foot in his FedExCup title defense, missing The Northern Trust cut because of a broken driver dilemma. But a new driver meant a new player at the BMW Championship.
Before Round 1 at Liberty National, Johnson noticed a crack in the crown of his TaylorMade SIM2 driver and played with a 3-wood. Unable to find a satisfactory replacement for Round 2, fellow U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover loaned Johnson his backup, but Johnson shot a 72 and had an extra three days' rest, compared to many in this week's field.
