Dustin Johnson locked up his third win of the season at the 2016 BMW Championship with his usual prowess off the tee and an improved wedge game.

The bomber from South Carolina has seen his hard work and dedication to the game following a 2014 leave of absence pay off this year. He’s this week’s big winner, but we’re all winners for watching the prodigious masher of the golf ball come into his...

Earlier this year, Dustin Johnson finally got over the major hump at the U.S. Open. If he keeps things going, he may walk away with his first FedEx Cup as well. Johnson carded a four-under 68 in Saturday’s third round at the 2016 BMW Championship to bring his overall score to 18 under, giving him a three-stroke lead over the field with 18 holes to play.
