Golf-Johnson sees another promising major chance at Baltusrol (Reuters)

SPRINGFIELD, New Jersey, July 27 (Reuters) - While many players bemoan the short turnaround between the British Open and PGA Championship, jammed closer together to accommodate the Rio Olympics golf tournament, the implacable Dustin Johnson just rolls on.

The long-hitting, poker-faced American, who won last month's U.S. Open for his maiden major, is in a groove and welcomes the challenge posed by Baltusrol when the PGA Championship gets underway on Thursday.

"I'm feeling good. I've got a lot of confidence in the game. I feel like I've been playing really consistent all year," Johnson told reporters on Wednesday.
