Dustin Johnson Leads Northern Trust by Five

Dustin Johnson Leads Northern Trust by Five August 22, 2020

Dustin Johnson continued his stellar play at the PGA Tour’s Northern Trust golf tournament near Boston today by a shooting 6-under par 65 to increase his lead to five strokes, at 22-under par, over Scottie Scheffler and Harris English, who are at 17-under par. Johnson birdied the par-three 17th hole and then canned a 40-foot eagle putt on the par-five 18th hole without even breaking a smile, as if it was just a matter-of-fact. If Johnson can keep up his blistering pace tomorrow, or maybe even coast a little, he should be able to win his 22nd tournament on the PGA Tour in 14 seasons, with a win in each season. If so, he will retake his #1 World Ranking in professional golf.
