Fantasy Golf Stats: Season Round Up
Well, what a season that was.
Four first time major winners may suggest that the points were spread evenly but there was one player who stood out above the rest.
It was Dustin Johnson. The American captured his first major at the US Open in June before winning his third WGC title at Firestone and then the BMW Championship in September. Three huge wins saw the American rise to second in the Official World Golf Rankings.
DJ picked up 5030 points after playing 18 times this season, with world number one Jason Day in second with almost 1000 points less with 4101.
Rory McIlroy, who won the Irish Open, Deutsche Bank Championship, Tour Championship and FedEx Cup was third with 3835 points.
