A look into Justin Thomas's performance at The Players 2025

Justin Thomas started his campaign at The Players with a tough round of 6-over 78 in the first round on Thursday, March 13. He teed it up on the 10th hole and could only make two birdies on the 11th and 16th, followed by a struggle as he carded two back-to-back double bogeys on the 17th and 18th.

The struggles continued even on the back nine of the opening round, and Thomas added a bogey on the fourth followed by a double bogey on the fifth and then two bogeys on the sixth and seventh holes. However, after such a tiring and tough day, the two-time Major winner found some sort of relief on the concluding holes and made two back-to-back birdies on the eighth and ninth for a round of 6-over 78.

Thomas started the second round with two back-to-back birdies on the first and second holes and added three more on the fifth, seventh, and ninth holes. On the back nine, he again had some amazing play with four back-to-back birdies from the 11th to 14th, followed by two more on the 16th and 17th before concluding the round with an unfortunate bogey on the 18th for a round of 10-under 62, bringing his total score to 4-under.
