He has taken some drastic decisions ahead of the tournament. Let’s dive into the story.

Justin Thomas parts ways with his putting coach

This year has been a rough ride for JT. He missed more cuts than top finishes this year. Even in major championships, he has had underwhelming performances missing the cut on three occasions.
