Johnson captures John Deere Classic

IN Silvis, Illinois, Zach Johnson won the John Deere Classic on the second playoff hole on Sunday, hitting his second shot to within a foot for a birdie putt to beat Troy Matteson.

After Johnson and Matteson double-bogeyed the 18th on the first playoff hole, Johnson hit a 193-yard second shot from a bunker to 12 inches from the cup on the second playoff hole, again on the 18th. Matteson needed to sink a 43-footer to match Johnson's birdie, but didn't get the putt to the hole.

It was Johnson's second win of the season and ninth of his career.
