PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. – Dustin Johnson doesn’t have to look far over his shoulder to see the top threat to his world No. 1 ranking this week.
Johnson is teeing it up at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, his first start since winning the Sentry Tournament of Champions in an eight-shot rout in the year’s first PGA Tour event.
World No. 2 Jon Rahm is also in the field this week. Rahm could overtake Johnson for No. 1 if Rahm wins this week and Johnson finishes 45th or worse, according to Golf Channel projections.
