Kids, don’t try this swing at home.
Only a few tour pros have a shot that can make other tour pros stop what they’re doing on the range and have a look. Dustin Johnson has one.
Some golfers hide big power in a deceptively compact package. But Johnson is built like an NBA guard, so the 340-yard lightning bolts he hits with his 122-mile-per-hour club head speed don’t seem that surprising.
His PGA Tour Player of the Year season in 2016 came in big part after moving away from a more volatile draw to a consistent baby fade. “I don’t try to fade it,” Johnson says. “I just set up a hair more open, aim at the left side of the fairway, and I swing. If I’m working to make the ball go left to right, something is off.”
Not much was off last season when he won three times, including the U.S. Open, led the tour in money, scoring and birdies, and was second in driving distance and strokes gained off the tee.

What's Next For Carson Palmer?
Carson Palmer is an old football player in the prime of his golf life. The 2002 Heisman Trophy winner, now 37, recently took a month to decide if his body could survive another NFL season at quarterback. The answer, to the relief of Arizona Cardinals fans, was yes, and so Palmer’s dream of playing golf every day will wait a little longer. “Some guys wonder if they’ll get bored with golf in retirement, but I don’t envision ever having that problem,” says Palmer, who is “always up for 36 in a heartbeat” when being a dad to two young kids allows it.
