Johnson defeats Spieth in playoff at The Northern Trust

There are some very specific characteristics to Dustin Johnson's golf game that don't translate to most other people who have ever held a club in their hands. He takes aggressive lines, swings hard at the ball, walks after it with the nonchalance of a stroll through the park, then hits it again.

The final hole of regulation at The Northern Trust on Sunday afternoon was a decidedly anti-Johnson kind of hole. Tied with playing partner Jordan Spieth, Johnson took the safe line off the tee. ("Right after I hit my drive," he would later say, "I was like, 'What am I doing?' Because I put myself in the worst possible spot.") He chopped out from the rough, then eventually holed a delicate, bending, critical 17-foot par putt to force a playoff.
