SOUTHPORT, England (Reuters) - World number one Dustin Johnson believes he is entering the British Open close to his best again after recovering from the injury he suffered prior to the U.S. Masters in April.

Johnson won three tournaments in a row ahead of Augusta. But the back injury he suffered during a staircase fall at his rental home in Georgia ruled him out of the year's first major.
