He's also #146 in Total Putting. By contrast, Justin Thomas is No. 1 in Strokes Gained Tee-to-Green. Thomas is also having a great season, No. 2 in the FedExCup with three first-place finishes and one second-place finish. All in all, he has 10 Top 10 finishes this season. In addition, this is a no-cut tournament, and Thomas has had excellent success in his career at no-cut events. Take Justin Thomas to win this head-to-head matchup.
