Overview

  • Justin Thomas, ranked fifth in the world, returns to Quail Hollow for the 2025 PGA Championship, where he won his first major in 2017.
  • Thomas has rebounded from a 2023 slump with six top-10 finishes this season, including a win at the RBC Heritage, and significant improvements in his putting.
  • The 32-year-old credits his competitive drive, fueled by watching Rory McIlroy complete the career Grand Slam, as a key motivator in his quest for another major title.
  • Quail Hollow’s spring conditions, featuring overseeded turf and softened fairways from recent rain, present a different challenge compared to his 2017 summer victory on Bermuda grass.
  • Thomas believes his familiarity with the course and its challenging closing stretch, the 'Green Mile,' could provide an edge if he contends on Sunday.
