Dustin Johnson has had an incredible career to date, with plenty of success including two Major wins and 31 professional wins. Currently part of the LIV Golf League, he he has accumulated victories across the world on both the PGA and DP World Tours, as well as LIV Golf.
In 2023, Forbes released their highest paid golfers list, in which DJ ranked first, with LIV Golf players holding four of the top five spots. Pocketing an eye watering $111 million, with $106 million of that coming from on-course earnings, and $5 million off-course. Such was the amount of money earned, the American ranked as the sixth-highest-paid athlete in the world.
What is Dustin Johnson's Net Worth?
Since joining the Saudi-backed LIV Golf Tour, Dustin Johnson has seen his net worth drastically increase, earning more than $50 million (excluding bonuses) in just two full seasons. His career earnings on the PGA Tour, while barely comparable to the sums he is now receiving, stood at just over $74 million. That sums ranks fourth in the all-time list, only behind Tiger Woods ($120 million), Phil Mickelson ($96 million) and Rory McIlroy ($80 million).
Johnson has obviously played limited events on the DP World Tour (previously European Tour), but he has victories in events that are co-sanctioned by both the PGA and DP World Tours, such as Majors and WGCs. He has also had two victories at the Saudi International which add up to over $1m.
For many years Johnson has been a huge name in the game, sitting atop the world rankings for 134 weeks which puts him 3rd all-time behind Greg Norman and Tiger Woods.
As such, he has commanded high-profile endorsements with the likes of TaylorMade and adidas, both brands he has remained loyal to for a very long time now. In fact, in 2021, Johnson signed a contract extension with TaylorMade, continuing the 14-year relationship they have had together. We are yet to confirm how much this is worth, but he does play a full bag of TaylorMade clubs, whilst also using a TaylorMade ball and bag.
According to his website, the American is sponsored by TaylorMade, adidas, BodyArmor, Hublot and Perfect Practice. Previously, he was also sponsored by RBC, but the company dropped Johnson when he moved to LIV Golf, as well as Graeme McDowell.
It is unclear as to whether Johnson is still sponsored by NetJets and LA Golf, a brand that makes golf shafts and shot to prominence when Bryson DeChambeau started using them.
Outside of golf, and in June 2021, it was also announced that Johnson would be teaming up with Wayne Gretzky - the father of his wife Paulina Gretzky - former NBA Hall of Famer Steve Nash, and billionaire Joe Tsai as co-owners of the National Lacrosse League's new franchise in Las Vegas.
