Reigning PGA Champion Justin Thomas earned his second victory of the season on Sunday, taking down Luke List on the first hole of a playoff at the Honda Classic.
The win was the eighth of Thomas's career. He joins Jordan Spieth and Tiger Woods as the only players on Tour in the last 30 years with at least eight victories before the age of 25. Thomas won't turn 25 until April 29.
The latest win also helped Thomas move up one spot in the latest Ryder Cup USA standings, hopping from No. 3 to No. 2 over Brooks Koepka, who has been sidelined with a wrist injury. Only No. 1 Dustin Johnson is ahead of Thomas now.
