Following a forgettable start at the Memorial Tournament, Justin Thomas managed to pull through in the second round. The two-time major champion carded a 3-under 69 to aggregate at 5-over and just make the cut.
On Friday, May 30, Thomas entered Muirfield Village after shooting an 80 in the opening round. He needed a low round, as well as a miracle, to sail through to the weekend. He began well with two birdies in the first five holes, but they were nullified by two bogeys over the next four.
On the back nine, Justin Thomas played more steadily as he picked up three birdies in the final five holes. Following the 36-hole action, he aggregated at 5-over and tied for 50th to make the cut.
Justin Thomas, who ended his title drought with a win at the RBC Heritage earlier this year, was 12 strokes behind the leaders Nick Taylor and Ben Griffin. Akshay Bhatia and Scottie Scheffler are sitting at third and fourth, respectively.
