Paramus, New Jersey … 

Current FedEx Cup No. 2 Justin Thomas reckons he has found the key to a hopeful third Tour title this year.

The recent WGC – Bridgestone Invitational winner is among the favourites teeing-up in this week’s Northern Trust and the opening event of the lucrative Play-Off Series.

And the key for the 25-year old is not what you would expect to hear from the average 25-year old male.

Justin Thomas has a key to success in this week’s Northern Trust – be in bed by 8pm.

“If I have an opportunity to be in bed at 8pm this week, I’m going to do it,” he said.

“I would love to be asleep by about 8.15 tonight.  I don’t know if it’s possible or not but rest is going to be important this week.

“It sounds weird, but that two hours of extra sleep this week could make a big difference given the early tee times.”

Wishing JT a good night’s rest.
