Pros and Cons of Every Golf Grip Style |
Best Grip? Overlapping vs Interlocking |
- Justin uses a interlocking grip style for woods and irons, with this style he can swing fast without the feeling of losing control.
- Thomas uses a neutral hand position to help promote feel with accuracy.
- He uses the very tested reverse overlap putting grip style that provides the feeling of both hands working together to keep the putter head perfectly square at impact.

Justin Thomas grip is sample, straight forward, effective, and does not get in the way of a very aggressive fast swing that averages over 300 yards off the tee.
To say that Thomas had gotten his year off to a good start would be an understatement. With such an impressive performance to start the year, many eyes in the golf world were watching to see what Thomas would be able to do in the majors. Surprisingly, his career-best finish in a major prior to this season was a tie for 18th in the 2015 PGA Championship. Through the first three majors of the year, Thomas was solid if unspectacular. He finished in a tie for 22nd at the Masters, posted his first major top ten with a T9 at the U.S. Open, and missed the cut at The Open Championship.
So what golf grip styles does Justin Thomas use to grip his golf clubs?
Looking forward, it is hard to imagine anything but continued stardom for Justin Thomas. With a strong game and the confidence to perform in the big moments, the only thing standing in his way is some of the other young talent on Tour.
