Justin Thomas will be targeting nothing but a win when he competes in this year's
Memorial Tournament.
The American star is one of the best golfers in the world at the moment and he is currently ranked second in the Official World Golf Ranking.
Having become the 21st player to top the Official World Golf Ranking in 2018, Thomas has clinched 14 competitions in the PGA Tour.

Thomas shot a final-round four-under-par 68 to win the 2021 Players Championship by one stroke over Lee Westwood in March.
The 28-year-old, who hails from Louisville, Kentucky, won for the seventh straight year and it was also his 14th career title.
Therefore, Thomas became only the fourth player to win a major, The Players Championship, the FedEx Cup and a World Golf Championship.
The Florida-based golfer will now be looking to win his second tournament in the 2020/21 PGA Tour season.

Thomas, who won the PGA Championship, says winning this year's Players' Championship tested him mentally, physically and emotionally.
“It’s been a crappy couple months. I’ve had stuff happen in my life I never thought I’d have happen,” Thomas said.
“Losing grandpa was terrible, and having to play a round of golf dealing with that, and then on top of that not playing well, it just was a lot, and it took a lot on me mentally.
“This week was huge to win a big championship like this in front of fans again, which is incredible. It tested me mentally, physically, emotionally, and I’m very proud of myself for getting it done.”
Tiger Woods is the most decorated player in the history of the Memorial Tournament having won five titles in 1999, 2000, 2001, 2009 and 2012.
