One day after barely beating 80 years, Justin Thomas has almost broken 60 years. The 2021 TPC Sawgrass champion put his name next to another entry into the records when he recorded a 10 under 62 in the second round of the 2025 players’ championship to link the course record.
Thomas, who shot a 11-birdie championship record before scoring Bogey on the last one, will share the record for the course with Tom Hoge, who coincided with coincidence with a 6 to 78 himself the year he set the brand. In the third round of the 2023 tournament, Hoge was twinned with Thomas on the day of his record display.
Making the performance of Thomas even more impressive was the importance of a rebound in his effort on Thursday. Thomas opened with a 78 and therefore improved 16 shots on Friday. This established a record of players for most strokes improved from Tour 1 around 2 during the stadium.
Thomas left the golf course seven backs of the rhythm in equality for 30th to 4 sous. He had gone to the golf course a few hours earlier, as if he would be an early outing for this year players.
From the day at 6, Thomas got to work immediately and carded a pair of birdies in his two opening holes. After the ball struck the heaviness, his putter started to cooperate while driving in a 14th foot foot on n ° 5 and a footer on n ° 7. A kick on n ° 9 saw Thomas running in 5 below while he was withdrawing to red figures for the tournament.
After missing a chance on n ° 10, the nervous right made a throw. The stews on the n ° 11-14 came to roar while he converts the eyes of 14 feet and 20 feet, respectively, on the n ° 12 and 13 before a punctual approach accessing a location of the withdrawal spindle on the difficult par-4 14th. From 3 feet, he connects again.
The Hoge record was officially in sight with four holes to play because Thomas required only one stinking tied and two to take the record for itself. He obtained the two by taking advantage of the 16th par-5 and curling in a bent from right to left on Green Island for his 11th afternoon Birdie record.
Thomas entered the 18th T-shirt needing a peer to shoot 61 and a birdie to shoot 60. However, after finding the right to the right of the tee, he played his second badly with his ball to find the penalty surface that rose the left side of the hole. After a drop, Thomas took a deep inspiration and launched his fourth at a distance to secure his Bogey and a piece in the history of the players.
