He is one of the longest drivers on the PGA Tour, and is one of the few players who can hit a ball over 350 yards at maximum.<ref name="LDC">{{cite web |url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTSETsi-OFs |title=Long Drive Contest|accessdate=July 15, 2011}}</ref> ==Early career== Johnson was born in [[Columbia, South Carolina]]. He played collegiate golf at [[Coastal Carolina University]]. As an amateur, he won the Monroe Invitational and the [[Northeast Amateur]] in 2007 and played on the winning [[2007 Walker Cup]] and [[Palmer Cup]] teams. ==Professional career== Johnson turned professional in 2007 and earned his 2008 PGA Tour card by finishing in a tie for 14th place in the [[2007 PGA Tour Qualifying School Graduates|2007 qualifying school]]. Johnson won his first PGA Tour event, the [[Turning Stone Resort Championship]] in October 2008. Four months later, he won his second event at the [[AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am]], a tournament that was shortened to 54 holes when the final round was cancelled due to strong winds and heavy rain, leaving Johnson the winner by four strokes over [[Mike Weir]] and five strokes over second round leader [[Retief Goosen]], who shot a third round 2 over par 74. Johnson finished the 2009 season ranked 15th on the PGA Tour money list. In February 2010, Johnson birdied the final hole to defeat former world number one [[David Duval]] and two-time [[PGA Tour]] winner [[J. B. Holmes]] to successfully defend his [[AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am]] title.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/golf/8515818.stm |title=Dustin Johnson retains title at Pebble Beach |date=February 15, 2010 |work=BBC Sport |accessdate=February 11, 2010 }}</ref> Johnson continued his [[Pebble Beach Golf Links|Pebble Beach]] success by shooting 71-70-66 to take a three shot lead over [[Graeme McDowell]] at the [[2010 U.S. Open (golf)|2010 U.S. Open]], but scored a disappointing 82 in the final round and finished T8 (McDowell won the tournament).<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.sbnation.com/2010/6/20/1527436/2010-us-open-round-4-update-dustin-johnson-collapse-results-leaderboard |title=Dustin Johnson showing signs of collapse |date=June 20, 2010 |work=SB Nation |accessdate=July 17, 2010}}</ref> In the final round of the [[2010 PGA Championship]], Johnson held a one-shot lead entering the final hole. He appeared to have bogeyed the hole, which would have tied him for first and entered him into a three-hole playoff with [[Bubba Watson]] and [[Martin Kaymer]]. However, he received a two-stroke penalty for grounding his club in a bunker, thereby dropping him to a tie for fifth place.<ref>[http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gameon/post/2010/08/eye-opener-ruling-on-dustin-johnson-fair-or-foul-at-pga-championship/1 USA Today, Fair or Foul at the PGA Championship]</ref> Kaymer eventually won the playoff. Johnson did break his streak of bad luck by capturing the third [[FedEx Cup]] playoff event, the [[BMW Championship (PGA Tour)|BMW Championship]] at Cog Hill in September. It was Johnson's fourth career PGA Tour victory, and his first in any FedEx Cup playoff event. He finished the 2010 season ranked 4th on the PGA Tour money list. In March 2011, Johnson entered the final round of the [[WGC-Cadillac Championship]] with a two stroke lead over the rest of the field. However he could only manage a final round one-under-par 71 to finish as runner-up behind [[Nick Watney]]. Johnson took part in the Long Drive Contest for charity at the [[Hyundai Tournament of Champions]] alongside [[Bubba Watson]] and [[Robert Garrigus]]. ==Amateur wins (2)== *2007 Monroe Invitational, [[Northeast Amateur]] ==Professional wins (6)== ===PGA Tour wins (4)=== {| width=53% | valign=top width=33% align=left | {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:95%;" |- bgcolor="#eeeeee" |'''Legend''' |- bgcolor="#D8BFD8" | FedEx Cup playoff event (1) |- bgcolor= | Other PGA Tour (3) |} |} {| class="wikitable" style="font-size:95%;" !No. !Date !Tournament !Winning Score !Margin of Victory !Runner(s)-up |- |1 ||Oct 5, [[2008 PGA Tour|2008]] |[[Turning Stone Resort Championship]] |<nowiki>-9 (72-68-70-69=279)</nowiki> |1 stroke |{{flagicon|AUS}} [[Robert Allenby]] |- |2 ||Feb 15, [[2009 PGA Tour|2009]] |[[AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am]] |<nowiki>-15 (65-69-67=201)*</nowiki> |4 strokes |{{flagicon|CAN}} [[Mike Weir]] |- |3 ||Feb 14, [[2010 PGA Tour|2010]] |[[AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am]] |<nowiki>-16 (64-68-64-74=270)</nowiki> |1 stroke | {{flagicon|USA}} [[David Duval]], {{flagicon|USA}} [[J.
