Professional golfer Dustin Johnson is making big moves within the golfing world as well as social scenes, and Johnson and Paulina Gretzky’s net worth certainly represents this. Interestingly, Johnson and Gretzky haven’t tied the knot just yet despite their status as a power couple and a wealthy one at that, but both continue to thrive in their respective industries and circles as well as together.
According to EssentiallySports, Johnson is someone within the golf industry that’s looked up to by many. Bryson DeChambeau recalled recently on the Mark Golf Podcast that Johnson is the golfer who has impressed him the most, a high compliment not only from another professional golfer but one who won the U.S. Open. Johnson, too, has earned impressive titles. Though he may have a troubled past, Johnson has ranked no. 1 in the Official World Golf Ranking twice in his career, which is no easy feat (via Sportscasting). Johnson, while a great golfer, is only human, and now we know his odd superstition regarding the golf course.

Naturally, the podcast hosts were confused by this, but Johnson later doubled down via Twitter when he tweeted a close up photo of one of this quarters, showing that it’s from 1965. “I use a quarter, always heads up,” Johnson said on the podcast. “It’s gotta be a year in the ’60s. So I only use 1960s quarters.” He then went on to add, “Well, don’t you want to shoot in the 60s? It’s not necessarily a goal. Just good numbers.” Finally, he said, “I don’t ever have a goal of, ‘Alright, I want to go shoot 65 or 66.’ I try to shoot as low as I can every day.”
