in today’s video we will be searching for the truth behind his terrible form so stay tuned to find out Justin Thomas quickly Rose to prominence as one of the most thrilling and accomplished players in the PGA Tour and made a big name for himself in the sport since he went pro in 2013 he has experienced rapid success he won two majors The Players Championship secured the world number one position and earned numerous other notable achievements despite winning a tournament each season for the past seven years his recent meltdown has raised eyebrows Thomas’ talent and work ethic simply cannot be the problem what about certain unforeseen circumstances injuries or fluctuations in form was this the case with Thomas the season although there are no records of Thomas’ recent injuries the golf icon might have had to deal with some unforeseen circumstances at one of the first events in 2023 the Phoenix Open JT showcased a strong performance finishing fourth with a score of 13 under par unfortunately his performance in the following tournaments only went downhill but things became even worse during the Masters Tournament in April where Thomas experienced a huge setback missing the cut for the first time in8 years at this event it marked the end of a remarkable streak of 12 consecutive Cuts made since July with the Genesis Scottish open being his last Mist cut despite this setback Thomas was drawn even more to the game instead of disengaging from golf he expressed his commitment on Twitter played my last eight holes plus six in miserable conditions yesterday to miss the cut but and still all I want to do is watch the golf today Thomas acknowledged the intensity of his passion stating some call it Obsession I’m not sure what I should call it but I’m some kind of sicko meanwhile his poor performance can be attributed to his earlier interview before the game Thomas had to wake up at 4:45 a.m. for a unique mid-round walkand talk discussion the introduction of these interviews during significant championships this year has been recognized as historic with Rory mroy and Max hom particip ating on Thursday and Saturday respectively before it became Thomas’s turn despite being three over for the round and one over for the tournament he graciously shared insights while working hard to secure a spot for the cut at this time everyone thought it was a one-time thing and Thomas would return to his best self two months later Thomas faced further challenges in May finishing 65th with a score of 12 overpar at the PGA Championship it was a horrible result for JT considering his even worse result at the first major of the year the struggle continued in June at the third major of the year the US Open where he experienced another disappointing performance in his third major of the year he again couldn’t make the cut and was out for the last two rounds during this time Thomas openly acknowledged being at his lowest professional Point following an 11 over score resulting in a round of 81 in the second round missing the cut by 12 shots at 14 over Thomas expressed it’s definitely the lowest I’ve felt it’s pretty honestly humiliating and embarrassing shooting scores like that at a golf course I really really liked I thought it was set up very well this year’s last chance to win a major was at the open at Royal Liverpool in July again Justin had yet to regain his form and returned home after missing the cut again thoughts I can hear them but it’s clear that this has not been Justin Thomas’s year at the end of the season JT went for the FedEx Cup playoffs hoping things would turn out better however the opposite happened as Thomas fell short in qualifying for the FedEx Cup his quest for a spot in the top 70 of the FedEx Cup standings reached its climax on Sunday at the Windham Championship despite putting all his energy into a lastminute push the two-time major Champion couldn’t secure the spot following the end of the game Thomas turned to Twitter to share his Sunday struggles on the course and sum up his golf season can use adversity as an opportunity to shy away from a challenge or take it headon was a tough season for me but I actually had fun battling it out and playing golf this week it’s why we play I’m beyond gutted to miss the playoffs but I’m proud of how hard I fought Thomas wrote Let’s have a look at the season 2023 statistics for Justin Thomas this may unravel the issue of his performances Thomas experienced a decline in key statistical areas which are crucial for golfing success he ranked 141st in driving accuracy meaning he is not hitting many Fairways with his drives for the proximity to the hole stat he ranked 140th which means he is struggling to get his approach shot close to the hole and if we take a look at his pting numbers they are also very disappointing he ranked 129th in Strokes gained pudding and placed 182 in three putt avoidance clearly he has been struggling with his performance and Effectiveness in putting these figures will be alarming to JT as it indicates trouble throughout his career rather than a minor issue here and there perhaps the issue of his form can be linked to the diet he has been on since this year earlier this year Justin Thomas decided to undertake a health experiment with the help of sports medicine specialist Dr eras suia the two-time PGA Champion set out to go dairy free for 6 months and gluten-free for one year the Hope was that Thomas’s new eating habits would help improve his energy and therefore his performance on the golf course but the plan didn’t exactly pan out that way Justin Thomas’ disastrous performance at the 2023 US Open disappointed everyone and just recently he decided to quit his dairyfree and gluten-free diet will this decision help him bounce back we’ll see Thomas recognized the Need For Change he parted ways with his putting coach John Graham and reduced the involvement of his swing coach who is also his father Mike Thomas this decision was part of his effort to take more personal responsibility and ownership of his game he Revisited his old swing videos and worked on rectifying inconsistencies that had crept into his swing over time it looks like the changes are having an effect on his game because it seems as if he is close to returning to his prime by the end of 2023 JT makes a strong comeback with a fifth place at the 40n net Championship precisely what the former top ranked player needed after a winless FedEx Cup season how was Thomas able to recover what did he do differently well our star player had to change his driver Thomas entered the 40 net Championship with a new driver with a slightly longer sh he also displayed improved Precision off the te achieving longer more accurate drives having practiced with the new driver for about 3 weeks Thomas expressed satisfaction with the results hinting he might stick with it permanently on Friday he hit eight of 14 Fairways and boasted an average driving distance of 340 yard if I drive it like I did today I’ll use it for the rest of my career Thomas joked a subtle adjustment to his swing proved more impactful for Thomas than the equipment change even as a golfer we’re the first to blame anything and everything else but it was me Thomas said I could tell in one video I was getting stuck underneath it so I had a good thought just from a little 10-minute range session yesterday afternoon that I felt like could get me through today and it worked pretty well could it be that Thomas’s main problem throughout the year has been his driving and technique meanwhile Thomas also stirred up controversy after being chosen by us team captain Zack Johnson for the Rider cup 2023 despite criticism for his selection Thomas was focused on aiding the Americans in breaking a three decade long losing streak in the Ryder Cup on European soil Captain Zack Johnson showed unwavering confidence in Thomas using one of his six wildcard selections on the golfer even though Thomas was in a severe slump missing the PGA Tours postseason for the first time none of the six automatic qualifiers or vice captains who played a role in the selections doubted Thomas Thomas has been an emotional Catalyst in his two Ridder Cup appearances boasting a six wins two draws and one lost record in France in Wisconsin addressing the criticisms Thomas remarked when it comes to stuff online everybody has got an opinion and theirs is right and everybody else’s is wrong the only thing that mattered to me was that Zach and the vice captains and the other six guys wanted me on the team despite the American team’s loss to Europe Thomas demonstrated that he was mentally and physically in a better better State at the nedbank golf challenge held at Sun City from the 9th to the 12th of November Thomas also pushed upward to Fourth Place JT is playing on an invitation wrapped up the tournament at 12 under and secured a respectable fourth place with a stellar 6 under 66 on Sunday while he also delivered a solid 66 on Friday his even par 72 on Thursday and Saturday diminished his shot at the title The Hero World Challenge also concluded positively for securing him a third place finish although he had a challenging start paired with Tiger Woods on Thursday where he tripled the fourth hole he bounced back impressively Thomas limited himself to only four bay in the next 68 holes excelling in approach play and wrapping up his fall season with a commendable third consecutive top five finish however these tournaments are not part of the official PGA Tour season and do not involve all the big players that means there is often less competition in these events despite Justin Thomas’s rough patch he maintains his status as an elite player and remains a formidable threat to win whenever he’s in contention the depth of talent in the field doesn’t reduce Thomas’ potential to win championships again do you think this downward trend is a temporary phase for JT he will have some time to grind through the winter before trying to start the 2024 season strong and avoid a repeat of this season share your thoughts in the comment
