Two-time major winner Dustin Johnson pocketed $18 million after clinching the individual title in the LIV Series with a 16th-place finish in Bangkok, Thailand.

The American, 38, shot a five-under-par 67 on Sunday to finish on nine-under par, leaving him with an insurmountable 42-point lead over Branden Grace of South Africa in the Saudi-backed circuit.

Johnson finished in the top five in four of the previous five events, taking home $4 million for his only win of the series in Boston in September. "Locking up the individual competition is big.

It's an honour to be LIV's first individual season champion," Johnson said. Patrick Reed, the 2018 Masters winner, sits in third in the overall standings while British Open champion Cameron Smith is in fourth spot.
