Dustin Johnson hasn't played the par-3 17th the entire week at the WGC-Match Play, because he's been that dominant.
However, Hideto Tanihara is giving Dustin Johnson all he can handle in their semifinal, and with the match tied with two holes to go, Johnson showed why he's the world No. 1 player.
Johnson hit a soft fade to 5 feet from the hole, then rolled home the putt for a birdie and the lead.
Dustin goes 1UP. Let's go to 18. #QuickHits pic.twitter.com/aeOAXF2ZZH
