Justin Thomas throws shade at Jimbo Fisher amidst Nick Saban drama

Alabama alumni and PGA Champion Justin Thomas stuck by his roots while throwing some not-so-subtle shade at the Nick Saban-Jimbo Fisher feud.

Fresh off his win on Sunday, Thomas was asked if he’s observing Saban’s 24-hour rule — moving on from a win (or a loss) after a day.

JT’s response?

“Yeah, I got a 24-hour rule,” Thomas told Sirius XM. “I’m not sure what Jimbo Fisher’s rule is, but I guess he’s gotta win something first before he figures out his rules.”

The 29-year-old made an impressive comeback in the final round at Southern Hills on Sunday to erase a seven-shot deficit and win his second PGA Championship.
