PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – Dustin Johnson confirmed on Saturday that he will not play in the Olympics this summer.
After his third round of The Players Championship, the world No. 1 said that he didn’t sign up for the Tokyo Games and would rather focus on the PGA Tour schedule.
“It’s right in the middle of a big stretch of golf for me, so that was the reason I was kind of waffling on it a little bit,” said Johnson, who also opted not to play for the U.S. team in 2016, citing concerns over the Zika virus.
