Players can make a lot of money through golf but when a professional reportedly earns $3.1 million while relaxing at Wimbledon, it begs to be noticed. With an estimated net worth around $60 million, the two-time major winner Justin Thomas has plenty of endorsements going for him.

He has associations with FootJoy, Beats Electronics, Whoop, and Citigroup among others but none of these is the reason why he earned $3.1 million while relaxing at Wimbledon. So how did he make such a massive amount? Let’s find out.

15-time PGA Tour winner Justin Thomas was spotted relaxing at a game at Wimbledon this weekend. Along with him were his fellow golfers and friends Rickie Fowler and Jordan Spieth.

The golfer bought the 5,545-square-foot mansion in 2016 for just under $1.50 million. The mansion features tons of luxuries like five bedrooms, a dedicated entertainment room, a pool, a summer kitchen outside, four full bathrooms, and a private boat launch for kayaks and jet skis.

After living in the home since 2016, he placed it on the market a couple of months back. Purchasing it for $1.48 million and selling it for $3.1 million made Thomas a handsome profit. No rocket science there, right?

JT had quite the weekend. 👀
