World number one Dustin Johnson beat fellow American Jordan Spieth in a sudden-death play-off to win the Northern Trust, the first of the PGA Tour’s lucrative FedEx play-offs.
Johnson forced the play-off by sinking a 17-foot putt at the final hole, with both men finishing on 13 under par.
The world number one’s ball caught the right edge and did a half-circle around the lip before toppling in.
It is Johnson’s first win since missing the Masters after falling down stairs.
He carded a closing four-under-par round of 66 at Glen Oaks Country Club, New York, while Spieth – who had led by three shots overnight – shot a 69.
The pair finished four strokes clear of Spain’s Jon Rahm and Venezuela’s Jhonattan Vegas.
