저스틴 토머스가 PGA 챔피언십 첫 두 라운드에서 잇달아 69타를 기록하며 중간 합계 공동 10위권에 올랐다. 이 대회에서 두 차례 우승을 차지한 바 있는 토머스는 메이저 대회에서 겪었던 부진을 털어내고 한층 안정된 경기력을 선보였다.
PGA 투어에서 16승을 거둔 토머스는 2017년 퀘일 할로우와 2022년 서던 힐스에서 열린 PGA 챔피언십을 제패했다. 하지만 2022년 우승 이후 출전한 15개 메이저 대회에서는 단 한 차례만 30위 안에 들었을 뿐, 7번이나 컷 탈락의 고배를 마셨다. 펜실베이니아주 뉴타운 스퀘어의 아로니밍크 골프 클럽에서 치른 이번 대회 초반 라운드는 이러한 부진의 고리를 끊어내는 계기가 되었으며, 토머스 본인도 자신의 경기 운영에 대해 긍정적인 평가를 내렸다.
