Golf-Johnson lifts WGC title in China ahead of Poulter

SHANGHAI, Nov 3 (Reuters) - American Dustin Johnson won the $8.5 million WGC-HSBC Champions tournament on Sunday by three-shots over defending champion Ian Poulter of England. The long-hitting American signed off with a six-under-par 66 for a winning total of 24-under 264 to stave off Poulter, who carded an identical round at the Sheshan International.
