Justin Thomas had an extremely disappointing season in 2023. The two-time major champion was only able to finish in the top-10 a few times and failed to win, while missing six cuts in twenty 2023 starts.
JT took to Instagram to share the goals he made prior to teeing off last season and was refreshingly honest about his shortcomings.

The only goal of the nine that Thomas achieved was making the Ryder Cup team, however part two of that goal was unsuccessful as the U.S. team lost handedly to the Europeans.
Thomas left a lengthy message alongside the pictures of his saved goals.
“Well… at least I got one check mark! ? I’ve always been a goal setter, but also have enjoyed being candid about sharing them at seasons end. In 23’ I went with less stat oriented goals, more accomplishment based, with the thought of the “practicing” I did would accomplish the stats I wanted which would produce these hopeful outcomes.
Everybody is different in their goal setting. I’ve always been one to set the bar high to try and work toward them and achieve them. While 2023 was my least successful year on @pgatour, it provided my best opportunity for learning experiences and areas to grow. I’m thankful to have an amazing team around me who works their tails off to continue to work hard to win tournaments and improve.
We saw LOTS of positives and great things these last few months, and am excited for a few weeks off with family and friends to relax. 2024 will be season 10 (wtf!?!?!?) for me on Tour, and I’m still looking to just get 1% better each day… ??”.
If you are tempted to reply to his post with, “looks like one of my parlays”, please refrain as that joke has already been repeated hundreds of times in less than 24 hours.
