All of the talk heading into the 99th PGA Championship was about Jordan Spieth’s quest for the career grand slam, but when all was said and done at Quail Hollow Club, Spieth’s good friend, Justin Thomas, took home his first career major title.

Thomas used a Sunday surge to overtake Kevin Kisner and Hideki Matsuyama to hoist the Wanamaker Trophy. The 24-year-old star carded a final-round three-under-par 68 to finish the tournament at 8-under-par. He used a 40-foot chip-in birdie to take a share of the lead and held off late-round surges from Patrick Reed, Rickie Fowler and Francesco Molinari to win the year’s final major.

For his win, Thomas will receive just under $2 million. The total purse for the tournament is $10.5 million.
