Jason Day had made a habit of getting close to the big victory, but now that the Australian is closing the deal on the golf course, he has joined Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth at the top of the game.

American Dustin Johnson carded a six-under-par 65 today to claim his first PGA Tour title of the year at The Barclays in an event shortened to 54 holes due to Hurricane Irene.
