The 2015 Open Championship was almost Jordan Spieth's third major in a row and almost Jason Day's first major. Instead, it turned out to be Zach Johnson's second major win, taking a four-hole playoff over Marc Leishman and 2010 Open winner Louis Oosthuizen.
Johnson won nearly $1.8 million, the winner's share of the $9.2 million purse.
