It is not a secret that both Justin Thomas and Jessica Korda are good friends. Fans have already seen some funny interactions between the professional golfers through their social media. However, the PGA Tour player was not making a joke when he recently tagged the LPGA player on his social media. 

Jessica Korda and Thomas have acknowledged their friendship to the public by engaging on each other’s social posts. There was a time when Justin recommended an alternative career for the LPGA player after seeing one of her updates. He had shared her Insta story with the quote, “@thejessicakorda’s second career is dog sitting service.”

Interestingly, Justin and Korda once shared a conversation over the latter’s performance in a tournament. Justin commented on the scorecard of Jessica after she posted the same on her social media. He said, Y did you make a 9,” to which she replied, “@justinthomas34 I made a 15 footer FOR 9.”

The two are known to make jokes about each other. However, this time around, Justin didn’t tag Jessica on his Twitter just to make a funny remark. In fact, he meant business.

Justin is known for wearing the FootJoy shoes from the very beginning of his career. Although he has changed his clothing brand, he never stopped wearing the FootJoy branded shoes. Since he has been doing this from his amateur days, it would have been a surprise if he wasn’t part of the brand’s team already. 

Recently, Thomas shared a post by the host/reporter Chantel McCabe, in which she shared the joy of revealing the newest member of the FootJoy team, Jessica Korda.
