Dustin Johnson fired a final-round 4-under 66 at Glen Oaks Club and overcame a five shot deficit to win the Northern Trust in a playoff against Jordan Spieth.
It was Johnson’s fourth win of the season, and first since his freak injury at the Masters back in April.
With four wins, DJ is now tied with Justin Thomas for the most on the season, and becomes the slight favorite to repeat as Player of the Year.
The win earned Johnson $1,575,000 and 2,000 FedEx Cup points, which moved him into first place in the standings with 4,466.
Spieth, for his runner-up finish, walked away with $945,000 and 1,200 points. He is now in second place with 3,871 – 595 behind DJ.
