Dustin Johnson, the 29-year-old golfer, has the most Top-5 finishes on the PGA Tour over the last two seasons with eight, but he has yet to break through and win a major during his seven-year career as a professional. Johnson has a Top-15 finish in all four of the year's most prestigious tournaments since 2010 and came agonizingly close during The Open Championship in 2011 with a second-place finish.

The American-born golfer is another one of those young and talented players that keeps threatening to take over the tour and push golf's old guard into the background as distant reminders of how the game used to be played. Johnson is powerful driver and is ranked in the Top 3 in driving distance during his first three years on the PGA Tour. Let's take a closer look at Johnson's 2014 Masters odds with picks, analysis and predictions.

The powerful driver is playing some of his best golf heading into the first major of the season and is ranked first in birdies per round and second in eagles and driving distance during the first part of the 2014 PGA season.

Johnson played well during the Cadillac Championship and was in contention to win the tournament heading into the back nine during the final day of the event. He stumbled during the 18th hole with a double bogey and ended up finishing fourth in the tournament and four shots behind eventual-winner Patrick Reed.

Phil Mickelson is the only golfer on the tour with a longer active win streak than Johnson's.
