Prior to the ZOZO Championship, he said, via PGA Tour:

Thomas further said:
"I think reality will probably set in when I'm flying home and then when I get home because it will be getting in crunch time. I know my wife's going to be an unbelievable mom and I'm excited for the opportunity to raise a little girl."
The winner of the ZOZO Championship will win $1.53 million.
How is Justin Thomas playing at the ZOZO Championship Championship?
Justin Thomas is eying for his 16th PGA Tour victory at the 2024 ZOZO Championship. After three rounds, Thomas has an aggregate score of 15-under 195 and is currently positioned second.
Thomas scored 4-under 66 in the first round with five birdies against a bogey. He carded a bogey-free 6-under 64 in the second round. He scored four birdies on 6th, 10th, 13th and 16th holes. On the last hole, par-5 18th, he scored an eagle. After the second round, he said, via PGA Tour:
"I'm eager to win any tournament, I always want to. When things are going well, you feel like you should do that quite often and every year, but it's just the reality of how difficult the sport is. Also, I think the TOUR is quite a bit deeper than even when I first came out. You have a lot of guys that are freakishly talented and have no fear and are hungry to win like all of us are."
Thomas continued his performance in the third round. He scored a bogey-free 5 under 65. He started the round with two consecutive birdies on the 1st and 2nd holes. He scored three more birdies on the back nine on the 10th, 11th and 14th holes.
