DJ to Mark Return at Farmers Insurance Open


Dustin Johnson will make his return to the PGA Tour at the Farmers Insurance Open in two weeks. The announcement was made Friday afternoon.

The eight-time Tour winner Johnson has been on a personal leave from professional golf since last July. A Golf.com report indicated he had been suspended by the PGA Tour for six months for failing multiple drug tests, though that has not been confirmed by Tour officials.

On Monday, Johnson's fiancée Paulina Gretzky delivered the couple's first child. The baby boy was born in Los Angeles, where the couple now makes their home.

Johnson has told both ESPN and SI.com in separate interviews that he's made major changes in his lifestyle, including improved fitness programs and hiring a life coach.

He's also been receiving advice from Paulina's father, hockey great Wayne Gretzky, and the couple lives in a rented house near her parents close to Sherwood Country Club near Los Angeles. According to SI.com, Johnson recently shot a course-record 61 at Sherwood.
