Around the wider world of golf: Inbee Park outdueled Lydia Ko and Stacy Lewis at the HSBC Women's Champions on the LPGA/LET; Holly Clyburn won the Bing Lee Fujitsu Women’s NSW Open on the ALPG; Teresa Lu won the Daikin Orchid Ladies on the JLPGA (bangkokbobby has the details); Matthew Millar won the Holden NZ PGA Championship on the Australasian Tour; Trevor Fisher won the Africa Open on the ET; Andrew Landry won the Cartagena de Indias at Karibana Championship on the Web.com Tour; and Alex Cejka got his first-ever PGA Tour win at the Puerto Rico Open, the Tour's alternate event.
BTW, Lindsey Vonn got another Super-G win for her 65th World Cup victory. I wonder if Tiger was there?
A 5-shot lead just ain't what it used to be. The Battle of the Bombers -- J.B. Holmes, Dustin Johnson and Bubba Watson -- proved that Sunday at Doral.
Holmes lost his lead to Watson in a little more than an hour, only to have DJ find his putter and create a mad scramble between the three coming down the stretch. In the end they finished (in order) DJ, Holmes, Watson. DJ shot -3 for the final round, Holmes +3, and Watson -1. You can read all the details in these two PGATOUR.com posts on the Upshot page and the Wrap-Up page.
What stood out to me was how talkative Dustin was after the round. Usually he sounds rather bored in his interviews... but not Sunday. DJ seemed excited and very much in the moment, perhaps because Paulina and their son Tatum were there to greet him on the 18th green. Whatever "the program" was that he worked on during his 6-month sabbatical, it has clearly made a big difference in how he approaches life.
Dustin talked about having a chance to chase greatness, something he rarely spoke about before. Whatever lies ahead for him, he's got a great start with a brand new Limerick Summary to call his own:

Paulina and Tatum now find him
With win number nine.
For Dustin, it’s time
To step up; maybe this will remind him!
