À propos de cet audio
Dustin Johnson is back in the headlines with some major career moves and a reminder to golf fans that he still has plenty of drive left in the tank. According to GolfMagic and FlushingIt, Dustin has signed a contract extension with LIV Golf, ending speculation that he might return to the PGA Tour after a run of missed cuts at this year’s majors. Johnson’s representatives reportedly hammered out the deal in a series of meetings in New York, and he’ll continue as captain of the 4 Aces for the 2026 season as LIV launches its new calendar in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia next February. While terms of Johnson’s new deal haven’t been made public, sources close to the situation say most star players up for renewal have committed to stay and lead their teams, which helps keep the ever-watchful golfing public focused on the Saudi-backed league and the ongoing disruption to pro golf’s traditional order.
That extension is significant. Johnson, now 41, was one of LIV’s earliest and flashiest recruits back in 2022. After resigning his PGA Tour membership and signing a three-year deal reportedly worth over 100 million dollars, he helped put LIV on the global golf map. Even though his individual form has cooled—he missed three of four cuts at this year’s majors—Johnson has notched three individual wins with LIV and maintained his standing as one of the game’s highest profile competitors. His eye, it seems, is still on golf history; he recently told reporters at the Alfred Dunhill Links that he’s targeting a spot on the 2027 US Ryder Cup team in Ireland, a bold ambition given the elephant in the room—LIV players’ exclusion from the American squad since the split with the PGA Tour.
On the equipment side, GolfWRX reports Johnson has changed clubs for the sixth time this season, a sign he’s still chasing that edge as he fights to recapture his top-tier form. As for day-to-day life and training, Johnson’s wedge routine, detailed on Golf.com, continues to inspire aspiring golfers to sharpen their short games and trust their yardages—his relentless work ethic is still very much alive behind the scenes.
On social media, chatter about Johnson’s contract extension has been steady, with FlushingIt on X and others confirming the renewal. Patrick Reed, his longtime 4 Aces teammate, said in an interview with Bunkered that Johnson recently re-signed and praised the team format and global reach of LIV, further shutting down rumors about a mass exodus from the league.
While there haven’t been any bombshell personal stories or viral antics from Johnson this week, his renewed commitment to LIV Golf and public pursuit of another Ryder Cup appearance show that his biography is far from complete. In the constantly shifting sands of pro golf, Dustin Johnson remains a name that moves the needle.
