The 2022-23 PGA Tour regular season has been a mixed bag for Justin Thomas. But it’s been more bad than good of late.
In his last seven starts, Thomas has missed five cuts, including the U.S. Open and the Open — he tied for 65th at the PGA Championship.
It would have been tough to see that coming after the way he began this year’s campaign with eight top-25 finishes in his first 11 starts, highlighted by a solo fourth at the WM Phoenix Open.
This week, Thomas returns to the site of his Tour debut, the Wyndham Championship (78th, 2009). In two professional appearances at Sedgefield Country Club, Thomas has finished 56th (2015) and MC (2016).

Our partners at For The Win have taken a look at what exactly Thomas has to do this week to make the postseason.
In order for Thomas to make the playoff field — he currently ranks 79th in the FedEx Cup standings — he’ll have to finish in the top 15 in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Thomas is +3500 to win the Wyndham Championship, which ties for the seventh-best in the field, +400 to finish in the top 10 and +190 for a top 20.
If he makes it into the field for next week’s FedEx St. Jude Championship played at TPC Southwind, Thomas will have plenty of good course history to tap into. He won the WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational in 2020 and finished 13th last year.
