ATLANTA — Dustin Johnson hit his stride at just the right time and it paid off in a big way. Johnson finally won the FedEx Cup on Monday by holding his nerve, hitting just enough fairways and making a few key putts when his lead began to shrink. Johnson won the $15 million prize, the biggest in golf. Equally important was getting his named etched on that silver FedEx Cup trophy alongside some of the best from his generation, starting with Tiger Woods and most recently Rory McIlroy. 1 seed at the Tour Championship to win the FedEx Cup since Tiger Woods in 2009.
