Dustin Johnson Talks About Alcohol Problems, Positive Cocaine Test

The baby's arrival could not have come at a better time for Johnson, who had a 2014 to forget on and off the links. Johnson took a leave of absence from the PGA Tour this summer after testing positive for cocaine. Johnson's hard-partying ways have been a staple of his public persona, but he told Golf.com recently that he has matured.

"Over these past four or five months I've really grown up," Johnson said, "and I am starting to become the person I want my kids to look up to."
