About this listen
Dustin Johnson, the former world number one and LIV Golf star, just dropped a bombshell commitment to kick off his 2026 season at the nine million dollar Hero Dubai Desert Classic on the DP World Tour, marking his debut in the prestigious Rolex Series event from January 22 to 25 at Emirates Golf Club in Dubai. Golfmagic reports Johnson raved about the tournaments incredible history with past champs like Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, and Seve Ballesteros, saying hes excited to chase the Dallah Trophy alongside McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, Viktor Hovland, and defending champ Tyrrell Hatton. Bunkered and the European Tour site confirm this high-profile crossover as Johnson bridges LIV and traditional tours.
Hot on that news, multiple sources including Field Level Media and Flushing It reveal Johnson has inked a lucrative new contract extension with LIV Golf, reportedly worth over 100 million originally and now securing his captaincy of the 4Aces team featuring Patrick Reed, Thomas Pieters, and Harold Varner III into 2026. Last Word on Sports quotes Johnson confirming the roster stays unchanged despite their seventh-place team finish and his own 14th in individuals after a winless 2025 marred by missed cuts at the Masters, PGA, and US Open. LIV Golf previews note his ball-striking remains elite but short game woes held him back, with a bright third at Indianapolis as a late spark.
No fresh public appearances or social media buzz in the last few days, though whispers from Flushing It place him in New York recently meeting LIV execs. This LIV lock-in and DP World Tour plunge signal Johnsons eyeing a 2027 Ryder Cup comeback after his perfect 5-0 at Whistling Straits, per Golfmagiches aiming to sharpen drives and reclaim form at age 41.
