“I haven’t had the opportunity to play pissed off for a while, so I’m pretty excited to play a little pissed off this year,” Thomas said on Wednesday, per Brody Miller of The Athletic.
The two-time major champion was ultimately left off a 12-man United States team that was headlined by Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schaffele, the top two players in the World Golf Ranking.
