I'm still pretty mad that I didn't win that tournament. [No.] 18 is one of the easier holes on the course. It's a driver, 5-iron for me and I had a 30-footer for birdie, he said. I should have birdied that to have a chance at a playoff. So it still bothers me.Thomas also still burns over his loss to Jordan Spieth at the 2012 NCAA Championship at Riviera, and on Tuesday he offered another loss that lingers some 17 years later.Totally choked the U.S. Kids [Championship] when I was 8 years old. I shot 32, 30, I shot 37 in the second round, Thomas explained. I'm dead serious. I lost in a playoff. I got up-and-down on the first playoff hole then I lost on the second playoff hole, made bogey. My dad was caddying for me. I choked it. I was so mad.
What it means: Thomas was never really in any danger of losing the title on Sunday as most of his closest pursuers didn't put up a fight. Thomas only needed two birdies and a bogey to easily win his first WGC title and his ninth career PGA Tour title.
