LOS ANGELES, (MILLAT/APP/AFP) – World number one Dustin Johnson
defeated Spain’s Jon Rahm 1 up on Sunday to win the World Golf Championships Match Play crown in Austin, Texas.
America’s Johnson, who won the WGC Mexico Championship earlier this
month, became the first player to win each of the four prestigious WGC events.
He also joined Tiger Woods as the only players to win back-to-back
WGC titles.
Johnson’s two latest WGC triumphs follow a victory in the Genesis
Open at Riviera in February that propelled him to number one in the world. He’s the first player since Rory McIlroy in 2014 to win three consecutive US PGA Tour starts.
