Masters 2025: Mics catch Justin Thomas’ explicit four-word reaction at Augusta
89th Masters Tournament kicks off in Augusta
Former PGA Tour golfer Jerry Pate, who finished top 5 in the Masters twice, joins ‘Fox & Friends First’ to discuss his predictions for the annual tournament as players are set to tee off in Augusta, Ga.
This week, Justin Thomas officially re-ignited the pursuit of his first-ever prestigious green jacket.
But the two-time PGA Championship winner made headlines for some comments during the first round at the Masters. Thomas’ tee shot on the eighth hole, also known as Yellow Jasmine, evoked an NSFW four-word response from the golf pro.

The microphones scattered across the manicured Augusta National golf course picked up Thomas saying, “F— heeled it… damn it.”
Thomas’ moment of frustration came just one day after he was all smiles at Augusta during the lighthearted Masters Par 3 Contest. Thomas took to social media to react to an “amazing day” he had with his daughter and the families of fellow golfers Jordan Spieth and Max Homa.
