Dustin Johnson revealed his wife Paulina Gretzky skipped The Open and opted for the warmer climes of Saint-Tropez as he battles for his third major title. Johnson’s brother is keeping the family presence at Royal Troon though as his caddie. With an eight-shot gap to close over the weekend, Johnson is eyeing leader Shane Lowry and hoping for tougher conditions that could play to his advantage despite his wife’s preferences.
Royal Troon’s layout, with its narrow fairways, deep bunkers, and unpredictable wind conditions, demands a combination of power, precision, and strategic thinking. Johnson’s club choices reflect his understanding of these demands and his readiness to tackle them head-on.
The driver and mini driver setup will give Johnson the flexibility to choose between power and accuracy off the tee, crucial for navigating Royal Troon’s diverse range of holes. His reliable iron play, supported by the stability of his True Temper shafts, will be key in attacking the greens and setting up birdie opportunities. Around the greens, Johnson’s wedge setup will provide the spin and control necessary to save strokes and recover from tricky lies.
