Justin Thomas Has a Priceless Anecdote From the Time He Used to Caddie for Michael Jordan

When gambling in sports became legal, Action Network ran a series with professional golfers, where a lot of them revealed some very exciting gambling stories from their past. Notably, Justin Thomas recalled one such story from his childhood, and it’s undoubtedly one of the best we’ve heard so far.

Michael Jordan, along with his friends, would quite often go down to the Harmony Landing Country Club in Kentucky for a game. This is where JT’s father, Mike Thomas, was, and still is, the professional head golfer, thereby, also making this JT’s childhood playground.

As a kid, JT spent his time on the course caddying for the basketball icon. However, when he was 16, he dropped the bag, picked up the club, and played alongside the NBA legend. Notably, this was where his tale began.

At 16, JT had already started the upward journey in his career. Back then, he was already the youngest ever to make it on the PGA Tour after his performance in the Wyndham Championship in 2009.

Thomas recalled, “I was riding with MJ. When we got to the first hole, he said, ‘Go get your clubs.’ He told them, ‘Alright, I’ve got the little man. We’ll take whoever wants us.’ There’s eight people. He wouldn’t tell me the game; he said I didn’t need to hear that.”

Remembering his smaller stature at that age, he said everyone teased him. This was until he smashed four birdies in the last seven holes and ‘drummed ’em pretty good’. “He just made me feel comfortable. I’d played in some big national tournaments, but that was the biggest deal I’ve ever played in. It was pretty cool. We had a pretty memorable day that we still talk about,” he added.

“He always took care of everybody tipping, so let’s just say my tip was a little bigger that year,”  he concluded.

Indeed, that’s one delightful story. What are your thoughts about the same?
