Justin Thomas struggles in 2024 summed up by Scottie Scheffler footnote

Justin Thomas once again failed to find his best form in 2024, as the two-time major champion stretched his wait for a 16th PGA Tour title to two two-and-a-half-years

Scottie Scheffler’s caddie Ted Scott appears to have made more in prize money than two-time major champion Justin Thomas on the PGA Tour this campaign.

Scheffler dominated the PGA Tour in 2024, winning a whopping seven times throughout the season before going on to become the FedEx Cup champion.With his success on the golf course has of course come plenty of financial reward, earning just over $62.3 million thanks to his impressive form.

The world No. 1 has not been the only one to benefit, with his trusty sidekick Scott also taking his fair share of the winnings, with his reported tally sitting him inside the top-20 in the 2024 PGA Tour Money List.

In total NBC estimated that the caddie banked a cool $5,238,499.57 for his efforts alongside Scheffler, ranking him above one of the world No. 1’s great rivals and Ryder Cup teammates in Thomas. By his usual high standards, Thomas struggled to find his best form in 2024.

The year prior had been even tougher for the 31-year-old, as Thomas missed the FedEx Cup playoffs for the first time in his PGA Tour career. And whilst there were improvements this campaign as the two-time major champion qualified for the season-ending Tour Championship, it was yet another year without victory for the Kentucky native.

This run saw him miss out on a Presidents Cup spot too, with Jim Furyk opting not to include Thomas as one of his captain’s picks after the three-time Team USA member failed to qualify automatically. Thomas opted to take to social media on the back of his snubbing, posting a classy statement to his followers.
