NextImg:Why Justin Thomas felt like a ‘sicko’ after missing 2023 Masters cut

Nobody would’ve blamed Justin Thomas for wanting to get away from golf for a while after the second round of the Masters.

Thomas shot 6-over across his final eight holes of the second round on Friday to finish with a 6-over 78 and miss the cut at 4-over – in the process moving the cutline down to 3-over and helping buddy Tiger Woods make it.

It marked the first time the 29-year-old missed the cut at the Masters, which he first played in seven years ago, and it came after doing a walk-and-talk interview with CBS, after which he bogeyed three of the final four holes.

But instead of unplugging from golf, Thomas couldn’t help himself.

“Play my last 8 holes +6 in miserable conditions yesterday to MC… and STILL all I want to do is watch the golf today,” Thomas wrote on Twitter Sunday morning. “Some call it obsessed… I’m not really sure what I should call it but I’m some kind of sicko ????.”

Watch he did, as Thomas tweeted several more times throughout the final round as LIV Golf rivals Phil Mickelson and Brooks Koepka made a run at the green jacket.

But the PGA Tour’s Jon Rahm held them off with a final-round 3-under 69 to win his first career Masters.

“Rahm put on a clinic,” Thomas wrote. “Had total and complete control of his ball the first two days. I’ve played a lot of golf with him, but that was some of his best I’ve seen. 4 putted one, played in the worst conditions, and absolutely dominated the field. Congrats to @JonRahmpga!”

Thomas, who won the 2017 and 2022 PGA Championships, finished tied for eighth at last year’s Masters.

His best career finish at Augusta was fourth place in 2020.
