Dustin Johnson’s College GameDay appearance put many fans to sleep

Published:
Masters champion Dustin Johnson got to join the ESPN College GameDay crew on Saturday morning as the celebrity guest picker.
Johnson is a Coastal Carolina alum, and his Chanticleers are 9-0. They’re the No. 18 team in the College Football Playoff rankings and hosting fellow 9-0 school BYU (the No. 13 team in the CFP rankings).
However, Johnson may be a great golfer, but he wasn’t a great guest picker. Here’s a look at his less-than-electric energy when picking the Chanticleers:

Let’s just say fans were fighting to stay awake as Johnson didn’t show much enthusiasm for his picks. Here’s a look at some of the reaction on Twitter:

It appears as though Dustin Johnson has the personality of a doorknob from the performance on Gameday

Hate to say this about my homeboy but Dustin Johnson terrible on Gameday. He’s either sedated or has zero personality. Just saying!

Dustin Johnson has spoken. Not a lot, but he has spoken.

Not everyone was meant to be a guest picker. Fortunately for Johnson, that day job he has playing golf seems to be working out pretty well for him!
