But as he prepares for the second major of the season, he revealed it was an awkward moment at home that triggered his back injury earlier in the year.
It was initially reported he had sustained the issue during a practice round, forcing him to withdraw from a tournament in Saudi Arabia in February.
But asked how he picked up the problem, Johnson said: “I just pulled a muscle… lower back.”
But the former world No1 golf ace appeared a little suspicious and the reporter pushed him for more details, replying: “Swinging a club? Lifting up a club?”
Johnson smiled and added: “No.
“Lifting up a kid… a bigger kid.”
That prompted the press room to break out in laughter as the journalist confirmed: “I’m done.”
Johnson married Paulina – the daughter of ice hockey legend Wayne Gretzky – at the Blackberry Farm resort in Tennessee last April, nine years after the couple got engaged.

They have two sons together – Tatum, born in 2015, and River, born in 2017.
But while Johnson angered many golf supporters by accepting the Saudi’s £100million offer and defecting to the LIV Tour.
However, his stunning wife regularly keeps her 1.1m Instagram followers happy with her series of racy snaps.
And Paulina will no doubt steal the show this week once again as she cheers her hubby on at the PGA.

How To
How can I improve the putting skills of my children?
There are many things that you can do to improve your putting skills. The first thing you should do is get some good instruction from someone who knows what they’re doing. Our article will help you find the right golf instructor for you if you don’t already know one. Once you’ve found someone that you like, make sure to ask if they offer private lessons. It’s important to check their schedule to ensure that you don’t have to book something that conflicts with another lesson.
You can rent clubs from a pro shop if you are looking for a place to play golf.
You can then start practicing, after you have received instruction. There are two methods to do this. You can buy a set or putters to practice hitting balls into holes. You can choose from different types of putters, such as long irons, mid irons and wedges, depending on the type of shot you are most comfortable with. It is important to practice enough to be proficient in putting without spending a lot on equipment.
Another way to practice is to play mini games online. Some sites allow you the opportunity to play against others around the world while others only let you practice your own short game. Putt-Putt allows you to hit a golf ball into a hole. TopGolf. StrokePlay. Wii Sports Club.
Once you’ve practiced enough, you can move onto the next phase of improving your putting game. That would be working on your technique. To do this, focus on three areas in your putting stroke: alignment, grip, and stance.
Stance refers simply to how far back your body is when you touch the ball. Beginners often make the common mistake of standing too close to a ball. You should keep your body away form the ball as you approach it. Your feet should be approximately shoulder-width apart, slightly bent.
Your hands should be free and relaxed. Your hands should not be closed or clasped. Instead, place your hands over your shoulders.
Your arms must be straight and not locked down. They should stay loose throughout the entire putting stroke.
Alignment refers the degree to which your hips move as you swing through a shot. People tend to rotate their hips too often, which makes it difficult for them to align correctly. Your knees will bend slightly as you approach the shot. As you swing through this shot, your hips turn toward the target.
Grip refers the position of your fingers on a clubface. Many people have difficulty grasping the club properly. Your index finger should be placed on the bottom edge, and your middle finger on the top. Your ring should be placed on one side of the shaft. Your pinky finger should not be over the handle.
You might also consider purchasing a new putter. It’s true that not all putters work the same, but if you are having trouble with your current model, a new one might be able to help you improve your game.
