The 2025 US Open at the highly-esteemed Oakmont ended up being a real slog for Justin Thomas.

Thomas has performed really poorly in the majors this season, with a tied 36th finish at the Masters and missed cuts in the PGA Championship and the US Open.

After two rounds of six-over par 76 at Oakmont, a refreshingly honest Thomas admitted that he has to do something different going forward in majors.

Thomas was shocked at how soft Oakmont was before the US Open began, and he was lucky that it wasn’t playing hard and fast in all fairness.

The 32-year-old 16-time PGA Tour winner has experienced a really strange 2025 season.

He snapped his three-year winless run with a superb victory at the RBC Heritage in April, but his form since then has been patchy at best.

The saddest indictment of the current state of his game was the fact that nobody was really shocked when he missed the cut at Oakmont.

Thomas is quite clearly desperate to get his game in working order as quickly as possible.

However, that’s easier said than done.

To compete at the very highest level, these players cannot afford to have any weakness in their games.

And Thomas is doing everything in his power to iron out the kinks in his armoury right now.

Incredibly, the two-time major champion stayed on at Oakmont on Saturday to work on his game, after missing the cut by five shots on Friday.

Thomas deserves huge credit for grinding out on the range at Oakmont, after the course had its way with him during the first two days of the tournament.

Justin Thomas has to address two key issues

There are two key issues that are holding Thomas back right now.

His stats on the PGA Tour this season highlight the two areas of his game that he needs to work on.

Thomas is a fabulous chipper, so the fact that he’s down in 114th place for scrambling is a big shock.

He has never been a great driver of the golf ball, so the fact that he’s currently standing in 94th in the rankings isn’t a surprise at all.

Thomas has to find a way to figure out those two issues if he is to challenge for a US Open title in the future, and other big trophies for that matter.
