Justin Thomas recorded the magic number on Thursday at the Sony Open. Here's the lowdown after Round 1 at Waialae C.C.

What it means: Thomas is coming off a win last week at Kapalua. He also won in October at the CIMB Classic, and Thomas has a chance to become only the second player to win both events in Hawaii (Ernie Els, 2003). Thomas would also join Tiger Woods (1999) and Rory McIlroy (2012) as the only players at age 23 or younger to win back-to-back weeks on PGA Tour.
