Justin Thomas won the 2022 PGA Championship on Sunday, May 22, the second major of his career, after a dramatic playoff.

Thomas won with a score of two-under after the three playoff holes with fellow American Will Zalatoris at Southern Hills Country Club at Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The 29-year-old finished his round a shot behind then-leader Mito Pereira, but after the Chilean hit his drive on the 18th hole into the water and finished with a double bogey, the major went to a playoff between the two compatriots.

And after three holes, Thomas ended with his second major victory as he lifted the famous Wanamaker Trophy for the second time, having won it in 2017.

Tiger Woods withdrew from the championship after the third round following his career-worst score as he continues his comeback after suffering serious leg injuries in a car crash in February 2021.
