LOS ANGELES – Justin Thomas said Friday that he’s at the “lowest I’ve felt” after nearly finishing last here at the U.S. Open.
Thomas, who carded rounds of 73-81 and was tied for 153rd in the 156-man field, said after the round that it was “humiliating and embarrassing” to miss the cut by 12 shots in the year’s third major.
It was also a surprise.
Thomas has been mired in a slump over the past few months but thought that he’d turned a corner in recent weeks. After an encouraging week of practice at home following the Memorial, Thomas said he showed up at Los Angeles Country Club – a venue that he believed fit his style of play well – and could “100% win this golf tournament.
