Dustin Johnson Career Earnings
Ever since Dustin Johnson turned professional, he has had a meteoric rise to the top of the sport. His first win came back in 2008, his first of 29 career victories and 24 PGA Tour titles. Not only that, but ‘DJ’ has also won in Europe on numerous occasions, as well as on the LIV Golf tour last year.
Now, in 2023, Dustin Johnson seems to be in decent form heading into the first major championship of the year. He is of course well down the Official World Golf Rankings now due to playing on LIV Golf meaning he can’t accumulate any official ranking points. However, having moved to LIV Golf last year, ‘DJ’ has seen his career earnings catapult enormously.
Having moved to the LIV Golf League, Johnson earned a mouth-watering $97 million for 2022 alone. This came from a reported $68 million on-course and $29 million off-course. Such was the amount of money earned after joining LIV, the American ranked as the fifth-highest-paid athlete in the world.
Prior to joining LIV Golf, Johnson was also an extremely successful member of the PGA Tour and secured $73 million in career earnings. This puts him at number three only behind Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson on the PGA Tour’s career money list (source: spotrac.com).
The career earnings don’t stop there though for the 38-year-old. Combining both his LIV Golf earnings last year and his career earnings, Johnson’s career earnings in total equates to around $193 million. The majority of this has come from one season at LIV, but he also made $75 million before that from the PGA Tour and unofficial pay-outs (sources: spotrac.com and golfmonthly.com).
Johnson’s most successful year to date in terms of career earnings was of course last year when he defected to the Saudi-backed LIV Golf League. Johnson’s best year in terms of earnings on the PGA Tour was back in 2020. ‘DJ’ earned somewhere in the region of $21 million that year.
This comes as no surprise as he won The Masters, as well as finishing second in the PGA Championship and sixth in the US Open. ‘Dusty’ has dominated the world of golf for years, holding the world number one spot for 135 weeks from February 2017. In 2020, he also claimed a $15m bonus for winning the FedEx Cup.

Dustin Johnson Endorsement & Sponsorship Deals
Another reason that Dustin Johnson has a net worth of $100 million and has earned upward of $193 million in his career is due to the fact he has various sponsors.
‘DJ’ is heavily endorsed by several huge global companies and is paid millions each year to promote their brand. The former long-reigning world number one is one of TaylorMade’s main golfers, alongside the likes of Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy and Collin Morikawa.
In fact, in 2021, Johnson signed a contract extension with TaylorMade, continuing the 14-year relationship they have had together. Johnson in turn plays a full bag of TaylorMade clubs, whilst also using a TaylorMade ball and bag.
According to golfmonthly.com, Johnson also has sponsorship partnerships with BodyArmor, Hublot, NetJets and Perfect Practice.
It hasn’t been all sunshine and rainbows for ‘DJ’ though in terms of sponsors. Due to his move to LIV Golf, his sponsors have reduced significantly. RBC dropped Johnson from their payroll when he defected to the Saudi-backed Golf League, as did Royal Bank of Canada.
However, the biggest news was that Adidas parted company with Johnson just two months ago after a 15-year relationship together. This is what was said on the split between Adidas and Dustin Johnson:
“We’ve mutually agreed to part ways with long-time Adidas athlete, Dustin Johnson,” Adidas Golf president Jeff Lienhart said in a statement to ESPN.
“For more than 15 years, Dustin has been a great ambassador for the Adidas brand. We’ve had a front-row seat to see him win multiple major championships, ascend to the No. 1 ranking and cement himself as one of the best golfers in history – all while wearing the 3-Stripes. We wish Dustin nothing but success moving forward.”
All in all, Dustin Johnson reportedly earns in excess of $11 million each year from endorsement deals (source: sportskeeda.com). All of these sponsors, along with his earnings on the golf course are all huge factors in the growth of DJ’s net worth.
As of today Rahm is one of the betting favorites to win the PGA Championship with the best sports betting apps. The likes Scottie Scheffler and two-time winner Rory McIlroy popular too with the best offshore sportsbooks.
