Johnson shot a 68 in the final round to finish at 20-under par and win the pandemic-delayed tournament by five strokes.

The Masters in November that had no fans also had no drama. Johnson made sure of that. Along the way, he buried memories of past majors that went wrong when he was atop the leaderboard.

The 2016 U.S. Open champion claimed his second major. He is the 12th player to win without ever trailing at the end of any round.

Cameron Smith (69) and Sungjae Im (69) were tied for second at 15 under. Justin Thomas was fourth at 12 under. Tiger Woods shot a 10 on the 12th hole.
