- American cannot be caught with one tournament to play
- Saudi-backed tour has created rift among top golfers
Dustin Johnson has won $18m (£16.2m) after securing the individual title in the LIV Series with a 16th-place finish at the latest tournament in Bangkok.
The 38-year-old American’s placing in Thailand means he has a 42-point lead over Branden Grace going into the final tournament of the Saudi-backed series later this week. Players gain 40 points for a tournament win, meaning Grace cannot overtake Johnson at the top of the standings. Grace will win $8m if he finishes in second place, with the third-placed player being awarded $4m.
