- One year removed from a heartbreaking three-putt on the 72nd hole, Dustin Johnson broke through for his first major title and cemented himself as one of the elite players in the game. He had to erase a final-round deficit against Shane Lowry and a Rules situation. But he stayed focused and left no doubt.

I love that this video was narrated by Captain Ray Holt.
thought this was a joke at first until i read the description. Best realization ever
lol when he says dustin clearly grounds his club followed by the actual replay, how toasty were the officials
DJ didnt make that ball move. The USGA just cant stop getting in their own way
B M there was something like a half a centimetre between the ground and his putter. They fucked up large
Honestly I'm tired of their shit and so is everyone else. I don't know what else to say about it.
Not even a full driver..... not bad!!
I became a DJ fan - oddly - during and after his personal, potential substance abuse issues, and self-imposed hiatus. I had JUST read an article by a British writer who, basically, asked "what is wrong with Dustin Johnson?" I read the entire article, which pointed out his many accomplishments, including having won at least one tournament in every season of his professional career. I hadn't really paid much attention to him before that, but it made me start to watch him, because the writer outlined what a superior physical athlete he was, and even went so far as to ask "Is being 30 and a millionaire his only goal? Is that why he hasn't become one of the greats? (paraphrasing)". It was only a few weeks later that DJ took his hiatus, and I know there are critics who will say mean and terrible things - I don't care. The measure of a man isn't his faults, but how he overcomes them. When I read later on that Wayne Gretzky basically showed up at DJ's house and challenged him "do you want to be good, or do you want to be great?", and then became his personal trainer right up until his return, I knew this was a special moment for a special athlete, being coached by the GREATEST hockey player of all time (props to Gordie). Until then, I feel that DJ was just another gifted athlete who only wanted to work hard enough to afford his lifestyle. Since then, he has been one of the most consistent athletes on the planet! What a difference focus can make in an athlete's life. He isn't going to set any records for Majors won, or overall wins, but - at 20 PGA wins, and 1 Major - he is pretty much a lock for HOF, and he is going to win many more tournaments to come.
to this day, I'm still mad about that penalty
There was atleast a half a centimetre between his putter and the ground. Fucking garbage call USGA
Ikr
What a warrior DJ is. To come strong like that after the previous failures. Strong mentally and very determined. Champion forever!!
He’s such a nice guy , doesn’t fuss just goes about his game , great attitude , true champion
He’s been f’d over enough. I’m glad he won, still think he has another couple majors in him
@@TheSteve1126 just got the masters(ik it was a while ago but still 😂) have a good day!
Davis: "He did the right thing - called the rules official & blah, blah..." The USGA certainly did NOT do the right thing. Be fair and get a life, guys. Thank goodness Dustin came through - and with such class!
It's terrible that the USGA messed it up, but what Dustin did to get through this and win is incredible! That composure has led him to the success he has now, and deserves!
Jake Rommer there was something like a half a centimetre between the ground and his putter. Garbage call by the USGA
Absolutely amazing video! Perfectly summed up this us open. And in my opinion that was the most entertaining one I have seen. DJ finally got was he deserved, and that's what made it so special
That last round was a classic. Brilliant golf from both players. Excellent vid, thank you!
Davis is pathetic in his trying to justify the penalty at the end. Johnson did not cause the ball to move - fact.
laurencedeveney he’s an absolute joke, glad DJ made no doubt of it winning even if he got the BS penalty
First time ive seen it this closely. He did not ground his club behind that ball. USGA can suck it.
He said DJ “ultimately grounded his club” and the video shows it was nowhere CLOSE to the ground when he pulled it away
@@andrewtan5442 Right, but does 'grounded his club' specifically refer to after he'd addressed the ball, and not during the practice stroke? Genuine question, I don't know the rules.
This USGA pres doesn't seem to know what "grounding a club" means. It has to be grounded behind the ball, not off to the side. If I was in Dustin's position and lost the tournament because of a false penalty, I would be suing the USGA for money lost, the vistory, anf to protect the proper use of the rules of the game. This muppet needs to go.
At the end when he hugged his son it made me tear up. I thought about my son
Dustin's redemption, no thanks to the USGA. You guys completely ruined the moment with your inability to interpret your own convoluted rule book. You called Johnson and Westwood liars and overruled your own officials to make a wrong ruling. The best players in the world are terrorized by the rule book. They can't even make a simple drop without calling in an official. How do you expect an average golfer to follow the rules. Nobody really understands them, not even you guys.
How about this rule? If the player doesn't actually cause the ball to move, he isn't penalized.
According to the new rules proposal, they will finally fix that horrible rule. It's a shame it won't be in effect until 2019 though.
Sloe Bone true
Sloe Bone ik its not the usga, but in the 2013 masters when the official told tiger that his drop was fine, then they penalized him for it, and couldve dq'd him, that's messed up too
They gave him the makeup call though on that drop on #10. It'd be nice to hit a crappy drive in the thick stuff and get a nice drop in the semi rough at no cost. Was a bad call though on the penalty stroke on the putt though
@@flamemc2227 It's 2019 and the new rules are in place, and players are still calling over a rules official before making the most basic drops. Sad!
GRATS on the MASTERS DJ!! Well played!!
"at the 299 yard par 3 8th..." WHAT a sentence that is
that putter was a good 2 inches off the ground as well maybe they should get some younger eyes to look at it cuz I can tell it on youtube at 320p rip
Blake Murray 2 inches is being generous. I’d say whatever a half a centimetre would be...but there was definitely space between
Blake Murray Before the address position he grounded his putter during the practice strokes session. That counts because he was near the ball, and the question is whether or not his actions caused the ball to move. I still think USGA were wrong in their decision though.
You have to just feel great for DJ finally winning a major after so many tough losses.
Really good Excellent thank you Dustin you are a legend🏋🏿♀️🏋🏿♀️🏋🏿♀️
I just love Oakmont
is this captain holt speaking?
Dustins shots with the driver are seriously crushed. I love this guy. Superb man and golfer. Penalty was a joke. The honesty of the man to call the rules official, but at no time was the putter grounded. NO PENALTY.
I was there for the Saturday round, great fun. Would love to do go there again.
DJ easily my favorite golfer
So much enthusiasm from DJ... lol
Best way to cover 72 holes in an hour 👍🏼 keep them coming.
Damn I got nervous watching this. Even though I knew Dustin won last year, I still felt as though it was only just happening. Epic documentary
Dustin is my favorite golfer
DJ is my favorite golfer and the best
45:06 “Sometimes its not what you accomplish that matters it’s what you overcome”
DJ, 2019 US OPEN CHAMPION !!
Winning the US Open is huge. Winning it at courses like Oakmont or Pebble Beach is even bigger.
“Deep rough the bunkers are deep the greens are really tough lots of slope, this the kinds of golf course I like”. What a beast!
Okay, so I'm no expert in golf rules, so I want to clarify that whole penalty thing.
As I interpret it, the officials seem to be saying that when Dustin grounded his club, prior to actually addressing the ball, the force of the putter on the green surface close to the ball was sufficient to deform the surface just enough to cause the ball to move slightly once he'd moved his putter and the surface resettled a tiny bit. Given that there was not sufficient wind or any other factor that could cause the ball to move, they had to penalise him.
Am I wrong? Everyone is pointing out that he didn't ground the club when he came to actually address the ball, but he definitely did ground the ball prior to that. Does that not count as grounding the ball? Genuine question, I don't know. But you're not allowed to ground your club in a hazard, right? And that doesn't just mean when you're actually addressing the ball, it means when you're taking practice swings etc, right?
Here's a quote I found:
"Decision 18-2a/30
Question: A player took several practice swings about one foot from his ball which was lying in light rough, and his club came in contact with the ground. He then took his stance, touched grass behind the ball with the clubhead but did not ground the club. At that point the ball moved. The player claimed that no penalty was incurred because he had not addressed the ball. However, the Committee judged that the practice swings and the touching of the grass behind the ball caused the ball to move, and therefore the player incurred a penalty stroke under Rule 18-2a. Was the Committee correct?
Answer: It is a question of fact whether the player caused his ball to move and thus incurred a penalty under Rule 18-2a. Because of the practice swings and touching of the grass, the weight of evidence is against the player and therefore the Committee's decision was correct. (Revised)"
Obviously this is quite a different circumstance, but it does seem to lend weight to the notion that a player can be penalised for causing a ball to move without ground his club behind the ball.
Anyway, like I say, I'm no expert, but I would say that everyone who is so sure they're right that it wasn't a penalty should be a bit more circumspect.
EDIT: Also, this is interesting: www.reddit.com/comments/4pilgi
Captain Holt narrating
GOOD FOR YOU DJ!!... GOOD FOR YOU!!
I saw some comments arguing that while Dustin hadn't grounded his club (putter) he had addressed the ball. I disagree. He was in the process of moving his putter behind the ball when you could tell he noticed the ball was starting to move and quickly moved his putter out of the way. Addressing the ball is when when the club is is a customary position when ready to make a stroke (rule that was updated in 2012 and supposedly used in determining if Dustin broke the rule below).
"If the golf club is grounded “closely” behind the ball in a position where it would be customary for a player to ground the club prior to making a particular stroke, then the club is considered to have been grounded immediately behind the ball". Dustin's club was not in a position where it would be customary for a player to ground the club prior to making a particular stroke.
I think the USGA took the coward's way out and gave him the penalty stroke because they knew it wouldn't affect the outcome of the tournament.
Raymond Holt on the narration XD
Watching these guys on tv doesn’t do the bunkers justice, played there a couple times, if you hit in a fairway bunkers it’s an automatic 1 shot penalty unless you get super lucky and are in the very back of the bunker, absolute war zone playing there
But having said all that Mike Davis did do some much needed quick repair work and the USGA has recovered well to go on and set up the most amazing US Opens
I will say DJ handled the 2015 us open with the utmost class.
his putter didnt even touch the ground when the ball moved i dont understand how they gave him the penalty in the end lol what a joke
exactly. the officials doesn't know golf.
299 yard par 3?!?!!?
Cole Matthews that’s what i was thinking!!
Who cares? You can call it a par 2 or a par 6, it shouldn't change anything about how you play the hole. If it does that's your own fault.
Joel Lahrman relax bro. Just a comment on how hard the courses they play are.
Right but slapping an arbitrary number on a hole doesn't make it more difficult.
Joel Lahrman you must not play golf
Dj says "you know" a ton lol
is nobody going to talk about the fact that 8 was a 299 yard par 3
They should have never said anything to Dustin Johnson until the end of the round... I personally think them telling him during his round was just them trying give the tournament some drama to get their ratings up.
Dr. Villiam That is probably one of the stupidest things I have heard about that fiasco, it was the USGA that screwed up for no reason at all. And how would that increase their ratings it was the last round of the tournament.
The US open is one of the most watched events on television
Davis makes my skin crawl
I was there in 2016
Very harsh on Lowry, the problem wasn't so much his shots, more so that he seemed to hit the wrong clubs on the final day. He was hitting almost all the fairways and greens, but was too far away with his approach shots and his putting game deserted him.
Ligerpride very true
Who is the narrator?
They didn’t want him to win!
He didn’t ground his putter behind the ball at all!
Captain Raymon Holt... what are you doing here??
2018 Mexico champignon. Finale live
Andre Braugher the goat
Great win this US OPEN for DJ, just cannot get over the stupid penalty thing. It wasnt so much the penalty for me, it was them telling him on the 12th hole that really annoyed me as a viewer. Thats what makes me think DJ is so incredible, having to deal with that stupid situation, push through and win. Well done DJ, you are the man! USGA learn to own your mistakes, instead of trying to justify the situation you were made to look like a bunch of buffoons.
Captain Raymond Holt?
Funny but I could swear that someone in the crowd yelled "bad niggah!" on those last two shots.
What a country.
And in the end all that anybody was talking about was Mrs Johnson's short ( but lovely) skirt.
Ripper Magoos
special 📷
57:25 Why did this man phrase it like that 😂
56:05 - "The video CLEARLY shows he grounded his club" Translation: We have no idea what we're doing but since he still won we won't throw our guys under the bus for being completely incompetent in every way."
Those Chambers Bay putts still hurt
24:20 to skip ahead to the main man.
Everyone of these films mention Phil, even if he doesn’t make the cut.
sorry but the Masters is THE PLATFORM!!
Redemption, yes. But a single Major to his credit with all that talent? Greg Norman has some competition now.
2 now!
@@matthewbartow1876 And with style. Let's see #3 soon, we hope.
Still better that than Montgomerie or Westwood or Fowler
11:40 They have Ernie Els but not Tiger lol
Tiger's a great but he hasnt won here has he? I think his best finish here was 2nd in 2007.
The flag pole on #7 seems brighter than DJ.
“People don’t know just how difficult it is to win.” Immediately cuts to Phil.
This was a great video...so glad i didn't have to listen to Johnny Miller talk through his nose the whole video with mediocre commentary like the Rocco vs. Woods showdown. Also, the USGA still thinks they got that right? what a joke
@petersent123 FOX Sports coverage of the US Open sucks. They are awful. They can’t even follow the ball in the air. Also, at least NBC has a cool theme song. Johnny Miller was right. “You can’t fall out of a tree and call the US Open.”
Monumental cock up from USGA officials. No other way to describe it which forced Mike Davis to admit embarrasingly that they had made a big mistake. Lucky for them Dustin played like a Champion down the stretch with the icing on the cake at 18. Otherwise..... it could have been very bad for them. This is happening way to often in tournaments these days where a player gets a wrong ruling from an official or close up tv evidence causes them to backtrack.
52:40 For everyone
43:55 299 Par 3 8th? wtf
13:12 its not about the most talent in the last 5 holes, I couldn't strongly disagree more what an idiotic statement. he is saying a 15 handicapped player would win because he or she would want it more.
A 15 handicapper isn't going to be in contention in the last 5 holes of a us open though. There are players who lack a lot of talent who have managed to make careers because of what they could do under pressure. Talent gets you in contention but it doesn't win you the competition.
y0lefted if you’re even in the is us open your probably a +6 handicap which means you normally shoot 6 under a round
There isn't 15 handicapped players in the U.S. Open. If you're in contention on Sunday at a major you're obviously a great golfer. And he meant that if player A is slightly more talented than player B but player B handles the pressure better, 9 times out of 10 player B is going to win.
Brooklyn nine nine anyone?
thank goodness they changed the stupid ball moving on the green rule
I don't think the us Open is the hardest to win because it often favours the long hitters. The True test ist THE OPEN on a Links course. You have to have full control over your irons, putter and maybe your woods. Us Open is more like driver and a 8 Iron or wedge, that is scummy in my opinion
Imagine how great Dustin Johnson would be if he could only putt
The narrator…. from Fallout New Vegas?? Can someone confirm??
Anyone else watching in 2021? and is anyone else annoyed by the penalty still?
Ernie Els won the US Open at Oakmont, because a rules official made a mistake and gave Ernie Els a free drop that wasn't warranted.
Blown call from the USGA.
So stupid.
the only thing davis got right was that it was justice for DJ to win. That penalty was an absolute joke.
USGA botched that ruling badly!
He didn’t ground his club! The usga is a pathetic excuse of an establishment. The R&A would never have handled this situation in such a poor manner
The USGA would not have assessed that penalty had he been up by one. They were able to take the easy way out since it didn’t affect the outcome. A joke.
Whether or not the penalty was justified (and I don't think it was) you can't have that hanging over a player's head for the remainder of the round, that would be inexcusable at any tournament let alone the US Open.
If someone had ended up making a playoff (or worse, winning by a shot) because a penalty was called after the round, can you imagine the outcry? People would revolt against the USGA is mass and they'd be 100% entitled to. But in the end the right man won, after the losses he's had in the past he deserves a couple more as well.
Thay should never come over to justin and say that not when he did fuck all and thay said play on so that's that
Got to say the R&A pisses all over the USGA these last few years. Good golf shots not getting rewarded because of crazy pin placements isn't tough golf it's defeating the object of the game? Like at Shinnecock Hills? The Open Championship and the US Open are the best majors, different in their own way but the best. Carnoustie played easier this year as we've had the hottest,driest summer since 1976 in the UK. The wind only got up to around 22mph for a few hours on Sunday. This Davis guy seems to be full of his own self importance? Cheers to all the Golfers out there...
bascet1 Augusta is the best major 😊 but I totally know what you’re saying
Grounded his club mid air? mmmmkay
you call that "causing a ball to move"? god damn do the ENTIRE USGA need glasses????
The penalty was an injustice. The turd trying to convince us that it was justified , is a joke. Even the worst officials could have seen that DJ didnt make his ball move. USGA is an embarrassment.
Davis spewing all that justice BS after him and his boys helping in trying to stop him again is just trash
Utter bollocks that putter was grounded....it was honestly an inch in the air ffs.....the usga need a head wobble after that and it was an utter disgrace
I cam for Paulina
Literally
Bruh she ain't even thicc and she ain't that pretty
USGA made the rules yet they can't decide on them... kinda ruined my US Open Sunday and was pretty pathetic
Mike Davis really does embarrass himself at the end in trying to justify the penalty. It's beyond pathetic.
Imagine needing to listen to joe buck
USGA hates DJ
