PGA CHAMPIONSHIP


May 22, 2022


Justin Thomas


Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA

Southern Hills Country Club

Quick Quotes


Q. Two-time PGA champion sounds pretty good. What are your emotions?

JUSTIN THOMAS: You know, it hasn't sunk in just yet. I think it did more in the moment. I was jittery and I almost kind of couldn't feel my limbs walking up to that tap-in. Although trying to two-putt from 25 feet or whatever it was is usually pretty doable, but downhill when you know you've got a two-putter to win, I was very pleased to see it end up that close to the hole.

Q. You said you woke up today and you knew you had some chance. What was the level of belief?

JUSTIN THOMAS: I don't know. I'm really not sure. I really tried to play the golf course for what it was, and I had a good feeling. I felt like I probably needed to get it to six or seven kind of start of the day, but I also knew last night there was a chance that I could shoot 2-, 3-, 4-under and it could be good enough. Although I was so far back there wasn't that many guys ahead of me, and it's a very tough golf course and anything could happen.

Q. You come in with so much experience; what was the role of that? Where did that come into play today?

JUSTIN THOMAS: A lot. It definitely did come those last probably three or four holes. I played that back nine beautifully. The holes I didn't make birdie or had birdie putts I had really good looks, and I hit great putts that just didn't go in, and the holes I missed the green I was able to salvage a par, which is what you have to do to win a major. I kept telling myself I've been here before. Although it's been five years, it's somewhere down in there.
