Dustin Johnson's return to the PGA Tour continues this week at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Among his playing partners: Wayne Gretzky.
Don't expect Johnson to be overawed by The Great One. After all, he is the father of Gretzky's grandson.
Johnson and Grandpa Wayne will play with Jordan Spieth and country singer Jake Owen, who is by far the least-known member of the foursome.
Play begins Thursday at the idyllic course south of San Francisco. First players tee off at 11 a.m. ET.
Johnson made his first Tour appearance of the season last week at Torrey Pines in San Diego, where he missed the cut with a two-day score of 144.
Paulina Gretzky gave birth to son Tatum last month. That was a turning point for Johnson, who was banned six months for what the Tour called personal issues. Reports said those issues involved substance abuse, and Johnson has said alcohol was involved.
During his time off, Johnson played golf several times a week with Gretzky, according to media reports. He and Paulina aren't married.
This week's pro-am covers the first three rounds of competition. Johnson and Gretzky will play at Monterey Peninsula, followed by rounds at Spyglass Hill and Pebble Beach Golf Links, according to The Golf Channel. The final round will be played at Pebble Beach.
