Johnson finished runner-up at both The Open Championship (2011) and the U.S. Open (2015), while also collecting six World Golf Championships titles.<\/p>\n
Beyond the Majors, Johnson has been a trailblazer in the new era of the game, joining LIV Golf as one of its earliest stars. He secured victory at the LIV Golf Invitational Boston, and captained 4Aces GC to the Team Championship title while also claiming the Individual Season Championship in LIV Golf\u2019s inaugural season.<\/p>\n
This season, the American has continued to deliver consistently, with five top-10 finishes, including a strong third-place performance in Indianapolis.<\/p>\n
The 41-year-old said: \u201cWhat I love most about the game is that it takes me to places I might never have gone otherwise, and the Philippines is one of those places. To be able to play in front of new fans, experience a different culture, and share the excitement of world-class golf in a country that\u2019s still discovering the sport \u2014 that\u2019s really special for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cThe International Series is also a perfect fit for where I\u2019m at in my career. Even though the LIV Golf season is over, I still want to compete, stay sharp, and challenge myself against some of the best players out here. Playing these events keeps me fresh, keeps me hungry, and at the same time helps grow the game in parts of the world that deserve to see it up close.\u201d<\/p>\n
With Johnson\u2019s addition to an already world-class field, golf fans in the Philippines and across Asia can expect one of the most competitive and thrilling events of the season.<\/p>\n
International Series Philippines is the sixth of the nine elevated events on this season\u2019s Asian Tour schedule, offering players from around the globe a direct pathway into LIV Golf through the season-long Rankings race.<\/p>\n
