Dustin Johnson had a four-shot lead into the final hole of the FedEx St. Jude Classic. So, he didn’t exactly need to hole out from the rough for eagle to win. But he went ahead and did it anyway.

With the win, he also regained the World No. 1 ranking.
Some golfers don’t like to play the week before a major. But it’s safe to say that Johnson won’t be regretting this decision. DJ shot a 67-63-65-66 to cruise to a six-shot victory, his second win of the year. It’s safe to say that his game is in good shape heading into the U.S. Open.
