Justin Thomas

Justin Thomas pulled off a stunning second PGA Championship victory in 2022, coming from seven strokes back after 54 holes to beat Will Zalatoris in a three-hole play-off.

It was the third biggest last-day comeback in major history and the biggest since Paul Lawrie turned a 10-shot deficit into glory at The 128th Open in 1999.

Thomas reached world number one in 2018 after seven victories in two years, including his first major at the 2017 PGA Championship. A runner-up finish at the Tour Championship a month later made him the $10million FedEx Cup winner and the year also saw him achieve a 59 with an eagle on the final hole at the Sony Open.

A 63 at the US Open, completed with another eagle, equalled the then major record and was the first nine-under-par round in the event’s history.

Thomas made his Ryder Cup debut in 2018, top-scoring for Jim Furyk’s side with four wins out of five. He was also their top-scorer in the Presidents Cup win the following year and won all his four games alongside Jordan Spieth in the 2022 match.

After a gap of almost three years Thomas achieved his 16th PGA TOUR win at the RBC Heritage in April 2025.
