FINAL LEADERBOARD

EQUIPMENT NOTES:

  • As always, Johnson’s prodigious length off the tee helped on the way to his 22nd PGA Tour win, however, it was the American’s ball striking that truly stood out at TPC Boston. ‘DJ’ missed just seven greens for the entire week and hit all 18 in regulation on Sunday. The 36-year-old’s irons shafted with True Temper’s popular Dynamic Golf X100s that have been soft-stepped in Johnson’s set. Soft-stepping means taking a 5-iron shaft and installing it in the 6-iron and so on, resulting in an in between flex.
  • The World No.1 averaged 320 yards off the tee for the week at The Northern Trust, ranking second in the category. Johnson’s win representing TaylorMade drivers’ sixth win (Johnson’s second) since the PGA Tour restart and third week in a row beginning with Collin Morikawa’s PGA Championship victory.
  • Unsurprisingly for Johnson, who is a regular tinkerer when it comes to putters, he had a different flatstick in the bag for his most recent victory at the Travelers Championship, while the 2016 US Open winner’s second trophy of 2020 on the PGA Tour marks the fifth win for TaylorMade’s TP5 range of golf balls since the end of the Tour’s coronavirus-enforced hiatus in June.
