Zach Johnson has two wins and two
runner-up finishes in 2012.
By Bill Cooney, PGATOUR.COM ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. -- In
his ninth season on the PGA TOUR, Zach Johnson has put together
quite a resume. The 36-year-old Iowa native has nine victories and
an incredible 44 top-10 finishes. He's also finished second seven
times. In 2009, Johnson won twice -- the Sony Open and Valero Texas
Open -- had nine top 10s and finished sixth in the FedExCup
standings. In 2007, Johnson won twice -- the Masters and the
AT&T Classic -- had a total of five top 10s and finished
seventh in the FedExCup standings. But this season might just be
his best to date. "Yeah, it's in there," Johnson said after his
first-round 65 at The McGladrey Classic on Thursday. "I could
probably answer that question better next week." Johnson, who tees
of in the second round at 12:35 ET, won the Crowne Plaza
Invitational at Colonial and the John Deere Classic, while taking
runner-ups at the RBC Heritage and THE PLAYERS Championship. So
far, he's had six top 10s and he finished 12th in the FedExCup
standings.
