Coming away from Whistling Straits the strong sentiment was that the United States had found their spine and not much was going to change in the next two years, particularly the result. This is how many of our minds work all through the game; someone wins a Major and we’re preparing ourselves for world domination and, a decade later on, we’re waiting for the next one.
Dustin Johnson came away from Whistling Straits with a perfect 5-0-0 record and, as the ‘old man’ of the team at 37, he appeared to have found his place in the team, racking up points with Collin Morikawa. If ever there was a foursomes team that could rely on one player to lace it 300-plus yards down the fairway and his partner to then knock it close it was these two.
