When not partaking in golf's version of law and order, or acting as friend and foil for Tiger Woods, Justin Thomas has proved to be a pretty good golfer -- a case he made again with an exclamation point at the Honda Classic.
The side stories hardly seem to have disrupted his quest to build on a dream 2017 season, when he captured a major championship, the FedEx Cup and PGA Tour Player of the Year honors.
Since then, Thomas has spent considerable time making sure he's not resting on those accomplishments. He picked the brain of Woods -- along with buddy Jordan Spieth -- for counsel, while also spending time with the 14-time major champion on the course at home in South Florida.
