Justin Thomas Joins Scottie Scheffler atop Travelers Championship

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Justin Thomas was on fire during the second round of the Travelers Championship, carding a 6-under 64 that propelled him into first place. There, he joined World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who remains co-leader for the second consecutive round. Naturally, Thomas was very pleased with his performance on Friday. Speaking to the media after the second round, the 16-time PGA Tour winner identified two factors that were key to his score: "I was very patient. I hit a lot of really, really good iron shots," he said.

Justin Thomas of the United States plays his shot from the first tee during the second round of the Travelers Championship 2025 at TPC River Highlands on June 20, 2025 in Cromwell, most professional golfers, Thomas was highly critical of his game, but found the result encouraging, given the circumstances. "I didn't feel like I drove it very well. I kept it in play and kept it in front of me, which is a big part of it, but I just kind of kept it out of trouble." "I would much prefer to be hitting the middle of the club face and doing that, but it's still a good sign on a really windy day like this if I am far from my best, I can get it around the course and just stay patient, and finally make some putts on that back nine." "It was nice." Justin Thomas started the second round with a clean card on the front nine with two birdies. However, the best was yet to come. After a bogey on the 10th hole, he responded with five consecutive birdies. Thomas then parred the final three holes to finish the round at 6-under and the first 36 holes at 9-under. JUSTIN THOMAS T1 — Fore Play (@ForePlayPod) June 20, 2025 This performance allowed Thomas to climb 14 spots to first place. The day before, he had finished tied for 15th place at 3-under, with four birdies and one bogey. Thomas is currently tied for first place with Scheffler, who shot 1-under par for the second round, adding it to his 8-under from the previous day. The two-time major champion has regained his peak form during the 2025 season, earning one victory at the RBC Heritage and three second-place finishes in 14 tournaments. His biggest loss this year has been in the major championships, as he missed the cut at the US Open and the PGA Championship, and finished T36 at the Masters Tournament. Nevertheless, these results have returned him to the top 10 in the world rankings (he is currently ranked 5th) and kept him ranked 4th in the FedEx Cup standings. He is also virtually guaranteed a spot on the Ryder Cup team. More Golf: Rory McIlroy Quips Media with 'Report Birdies and Bogeys' at Travelers

BetMGM Bonus Code WIREBG150: Score $150 Bonus for Devers-Red Sox Reunion, PGA, More

Just five days after the Boston Red Sox traded superstar Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants, they're back together tonight as the Red Sox open a three-game series in San Francisco. If you're thinking about wagering on this intriguing reunion — or anything else on the Major League Baseball schedule — then BetMGM has the way to play with the BetMGM bonus code WIREBG150 that gives you $150 in bonus bets just for winning a $10 first bet. Here's how WIREBG150 helps new bettors: If you're playing in Colorado, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania or West Virginia, you'll collect three $50 bonus bets (plus your winnings) when you win your $10 first bet. Not to tell you how to play that first bet, but you should maximize your chances to win by finding a huge favorite and playing it on the moneyline. If you're playing in any other state, new bettors get to jump on the BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE that guarantees you a protected first bet up to $1,500. For example: Let's say you play a first bet for $500 and it doesn't pan out. BetMGM has your back and will return that $500 to you as five $100 bonus bets. There aren't any bigger sportsbook promos out there. It was extremely weird to see Devers playing in a Giants jersey — and Red Sox fans probably didn't like hearing that Devers is willing to play first base or anywhere else for his new team. Imagine if Devers plays first base tonight against his former team! Check the odds on all Red Sox-Giants bets by downloading the BetMGM app, which one of the nation's best sports betting are plenty of other cool MLB matchups tonight. The National League East's top two teams — the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies — meet tonight in Philly and the hosts have ace Zack Wheeler on the mound. The suddenly struggling New York Yankees hope to get their offense going against the Baltimore Orioles — and they have Max Fried on the mound to make it easier to win with just a few runs. Ready to play on MLB, the PGA Tour, the Gold Cup, FIFA Club World Cup or anything else happening today? Then know it takes just two minutes to click a BET NOW button, answer a few security questions and activate either the BetMGM bonus code WIREBG150 or the BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE. BetMGM Bonus Code Promos: Get $150 in Bonus Bets or $1500 First-Bet Offer If you enjoyed watching the U.S. Open last week, then you'll enjoy the Travelers Championship this weekend. It's the PGA Tour's final $20 million 'signature' event of the year, which means it has attracted most of the big names. Scottie Scheffler is the defending champ while Rory McIlroy, Xander Schauffele and new U.S. Open champ J.J. Spaun are all in the field. Check BetMGM's updated golf odds to see how things are moving during today's second round at TPC River Highlands. Don't forget FIFA's Club World Cup and CONCACAF's Gold Cup are still in the middle of group play. MLS can earn a nice boost tonight in the Club World Cup when Los Angeles FC faces ES Tunis in Nashville. LAFC dropped a 2-0 decision to Chelsea in their opener.

Here's how: If you're signed up for the $1,500 BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE, place your first bet on any of today's matchups (or any other set of odds), and if it settles as a loss, you'll get bonus bets back. For wagers of $50 and up, the refund comes as five equal bonus bets, while smaller wagers get a single matching credit.
