Dustin Johnson: In The Tank, In The Dog House

Dustin Johnson basically went in the tank for the last half of the PGA Tour season.

D.J. was a ghost as far as leaderboards went.

The guy absolutely tanked it, he was just sorta hanging around, kinda like the dogs in the picture here.

D.J. tied for dead-last at the Tour Championship, an extraordinary feat given his enormous talent level.

So for his performance or lack thereof, D.J. has earned a rightly-deserved spot in the Dog House.

Tom Edrington spent the first 10 years of his misguided youth as a sports writer for the Tampa Tribune. His career brought him face to face with many of sports greatest stars -- Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Muhammad Ali, Don Shula, countless Hall of Fame NFL stars, more PGA Tour players than he can count. In 1980 he was honored by the Golf Writers Association of America for writing the best news story that year, his coverage of Jack Nicklaus' U.S. Open victory at Baltusrol. Today, 36 years later, golf is still a great part of his life, thanks to competitive playing days and the wonderful people he has met on this fabulous journey.
