IMPERIOUS DUSTIN JOHNSON SETS RECORD TOTAL TO WIN THE US MASTERS

Hublot ambassador Dustin ‘DJ’ Johnson secures his first Green Jacket in emphatic style

Sunday afternoon, amid the tall pines of Augusta National, Hublot Ambassador and world number one golfer Dustin ‘DJ’ Johnson blazed to victory to become golf’s US Masters Champion and claim his first Green Jacket.

Dustin’s emphatic victory re-wrote Masters history. Having led after each round and by four shots after 54 holes, he carded a nerveless final round 68 in challenging conditions to post a 20-under-par total of 268, the lowest 72-hole score in Masters history. In the process, he blew away the chasing pack, finishing with a five-shot winning margin.

Throughout the final day’s play, the big-hitting giant of the fairways never looked troubled, putting in a remarkably assured performance to seal a memorable win at the world’s most celebrated golf tournament.

Dustin’s win at the Masters is his second career major, after he won the US Open in 2016. He is also the reigning FedEx Cup Champion, awarded to the season’s best player, won the Ryder Cup at Hazeltine in 2016 and was the first player in golfing history to win each of the four World Golf Championship events. He became a Hublot ambassador in 2017.

This year’s US Masters was held in November for the first time in the tournament’s history, following the global coronavirus pandemic. The azaleas that bloom in the spring may have been replaced by falling pine needles, and there may have been no patrons lining the fairways, but a world-class field put on a spectacular show around Augusta National. But one golfer emerged as champion, Dustin Johnson

Dustin, who won the Masters with his brother Austin on his bag, is the latest in a long line of Hublot Ambassadors who have reached the peak of their sports. From Pelé to Diego Maradona, Usain Bolt, Alex Morgan or Michael Clarke, Hublot works with men and women who are champions on and off the field of play.
