TULSA, Okla. – After a quick turnaround, Justin Thomas made quick work of his second round in the 104th PGA Championship at windswept Southern Hills Country Club.
The 2017 PGA champion, who is on the late-early side of matters this week, birdied both his first and last holes in the second round, just as he did in the first round, and shot his second consecutive 3-under 67 to grab the clubhouse lead midway through Friday.
“Although I played solid yesterday, I played really, really well today,” said Thomas, who is looking for his first win since the 2021 Players Championship. “The conditions were obviously very difficult. I stayed very patient, tried to get in my own little world and get in a zone and just tried to execute each shot the best I could. I felt we did a great job of that and am glad to have a good round to show for it. I like this golf course.
