DUSTIN JOHNSON WINS SAUDI INTERNATIONAL ARMED WITH NEW SIM2 FAIRWAY

World #1 Dustin Johnson won the inaugural staging of this event in 2019 before finishing second a year ago, and a calm final round of 68 saw him take a two shot victory to win his second Saudi International title in three years. Dustin added the new SIM2 Ti fairway wood into his arsenal this week.
