Drive for show, wedge for titles

Dustin Johnson is known for his length, but he knows how tournaments are generally won or lost on the PGA Tour. He said Wednesday he believes his short game and putting are the biggest keys to his future success.
``You ask anyone, they can always improve their short game, chipping and putting,'' Johnson said. ``That's gotta get better. . . . For me, if I get my wedges better, which I practice those all the time, as soon as I start wedging a lot better, maybe driving it into the fairway a little bit more, I'll be tough.''
Johnson says winning a couple times and winning nearly $5 million in two years on the PGA Tour hasn't changed him much. But his preparation for the competition has changed.
``The way I practice and the way I prepare has changed a lot, I would say more than anything, but as far as my life or anything like that, nothing's really changed,'' he said.
