Scouting report: Justin Thomas

Everything below is derived from Justin's Drive for Five ratings — the same nine attributes that drive the game. Justin is rated 82 overall and plays as a Shotmaker.

Why these ratings

Justin Thomas's profile is defined by driving distance (87) — the standout number in the card. As a Shotmaker, Justin shapes the ball and manufactures scores rather than overpowering a course — short game 82, iron play 86. Creative recovery makes this style thrive when a hole looks lost.

Ryder Cup strengths

Justin's biggest weapons are Driving (87) — strong driving distance; Irons (86) — strong iron play; Big-match (86) — strong big-match temperament. These are the attributes to lean on when picking sessions and pairings.

Weaknesses to manage

The softer spots in the card are Accuracy (77). In match play these are the areas an opponent will target, and the reason pairing Justin with a complementary partner matters.

Best format

On the ratings, Justin's strongest session is the Fourballs. Better ball suits this card’s attacking numbers — free to chase birdies while a partner keeps a safe score in play.
