Justin Thomas unleashes explicit 4-word response after tee shot at Masters
This week, Justin Thomas officially re-ignited the pursuit of his first-ever prestigious green jacket.
But the two-time PGA Championship winner made headlines for some comments during the first round at the Masters. Thomas' tee shot on the eighth hole, also known as Yellow Jasmine, evoked an NSFW four-word response from the golf pro.
The microphones scattered across the manicured Augusta National golf course picked up Thomas saying, "F--- heeled it… damn it."
Thomas' moment of frustration came just one day after he was all smiles at Augusta during the lighthearted Masters Par 3 Contest. Thomas took to social media to react to an "amazing day" he had with his daughter and the families of fellow golfers Jordan Spieth and Max Homa.
"The par 3 contest @themasters was a little different today than past years! An amazing day with my girls, the Spieths, and the Homa crew. Incredible memories we will cherish forever Prep work is done, it's time to get after it," Thomas captioned an Instagram post.
Thomas failed to make the cut at the Masters in 2023 and 2024. His best finish at the major tournament happened in 2020 when he ended the event in fourth place.
Thomas also produced a top-10 finish at the U.S. Open in 2020. His PGA Championship victories happened in 2017 and 2022.
Thomas walked off the 18th hole at Augusta on Thursday one shot over par, placing him in a tie for 38th place.

How former Alabama golfers performed during first round of 2025 U.S. Open
How former Alabama golfers performed during first round of 2025 U.S. Open One of professional golf's premier annual events began Thursday morning in Oakmont, Pennsylvania, as countless players played their opening rounds at the 2025 U.S. Open from Oakmont Country Club. Included in that lengthy field of players were many of the world's greatest golfers, four of which played collegiately for the Alabama Crimson Tide before beginning their professional careers. Taking a deeper look at those four Alabama names as well, Thursday was simply a rough day for some at Oakmont, while one name in particular had an impressive day that positions himself well going into the second round Friday. Here is a look at how every former Alabama golfer performed during the first round of the U.S. Open on Thursday. Betting odds are according to BetMGM as of Thursday night, June 12 Justin Thomas Round 1 Score: 76 (+6) 76 (+6) Tournament Score: +6 (T-98) +6 (T-98) Current Odds: +35000 +35000 Round 2 Tee Time: 7:18 a.m. ET Thomas had a rough showing Thursday at the U.S. Open, shooting a 76 to now sit at six-over for the tournament as we enter Friday. Because of this, the former Alabama star will likely need a big day Friday in order to make it to the weekend. Davis Riley Round 1 Score: 78 (+8) 78 (+8) Tournament Score: +8 (T-124) +8 (T-124) Current Odds: N/A N/A Round 2 Tee Time: 2:09 p.m. ET Coming off what was his best-ever performance at a major by finishing tied-second at the PGA Championship, Riley had a rough first round at Oakmont on Thursday in which he shot a 78 (+8). Riley will likely need a big second round Friday in order to make it to the weekend. Nick Dunlap Round 1 Score: 77 (+7) 77 (+7) Tournament Score: +7 (T-119) +7 (T-119) Current Odds: N/A N/A Round 2 Tee Time: 8:13 a.m. ET Similar to both Thomas and Riley, Dunlap also struggled Thursday at Oakmont, shooting a 77 to sit at seven-over for the tournament entering Friday. Dunlap also needs a big Friday in order to make the cut. Bud Cauley Round 1 Score: 70 (E) 70 (E) Tournament Score: E (T-11) E (T-11) Current Odds: +6600 +6600 Round 2 Tee Time: 8:02 a.m. ET Alabama's top performer during the first round was undoubtedly Cauley, who shot an even 70 on Thursday to now sit at T-11 entering Friday. Cauley is only four shots behind the leader J.J. Spaun entering the second round, and is certainly a name to watch for Friday.
