Justin Thomas was feeling great about his game, but his putts just weren't dropping. So after an even-par front-nine to start his Valspar Championship, Thomas' caddie, Jim "Bones" MacKay told him to stay "patient" and it was worth the wait.
It started with a birdie on No. 11 and then a monster eagle on the par-5 14th, where he hit his approach shot 273 yards over the water and trees to the green and then canned a 64-foot left-to-right putt.
