Shot of the Year: Justin Thomas at the PGA Championship 10:00, 29/12/2022

Contested each May, the PGA Championship is the second major championship in golf’s annual rotation, and perennially features the strongest field in the men's game based on the Official World Golf Rankings. Known for dramatic finishes and notable champions, the Wanamaker Trophy—which has been awarded to the winner since 1916—is inscribed with names such as Koepka, McIlroy, Woods, Mickelson, Nicklaus, and Player. The 2022 PGA Championship was set to take place between 19-22 May at Southern Hills Country Club. 

Justin Thomas defeated compatriot Will Zalatoris after a three-hole playoff and completed an incredible come-from-behind victory in the final round in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

“That was a nice one. I mean, the wind off the left with a 3-wood isn’t exactly my favorite,” said Justin Thomas, thinking back to his tee shot on the second playoff hole against Will Zalatoris at Southern Hills.

“I hit a beautiful shot in regulation in that bunker like we wanted to, and I just … I hit essentially the same shot, just had a little bit more cut on it, and for it to go up on the green was nice just to put a little bit of heat on Will. But I like these 17th holes in the PGA Championship, so I’d like to keep making a habit of that.”
