Tiger Woods poses with Justin Thomas after enjoying ‘great dinner’ with US PGA Championship winner and his family

After earning his first major title on Sunday night, US PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas was quick to share the moment with his proud dad.

Then, having been presented with his trophy, Thomas, 24, and his family continued their celebrations by having dinner with golf legend Tiger Woods.

Woods, who has won an incredible 14 majors and 79 PGA Tour titles but missed this event as his rehabilitation continues from a back injury, shared a photo of himself with Thomas and his new trophy.

Justin Thomas celebrated winning the US PGA Championship by dining with Tiger Woods

Thomas, 24, broke his duck in major events thanks to a final round of 68 at Quail Hollow

His name now joins Woods’ on the famous trophy, which the 41-year-old has won four times

‘Got to have a great dinner with the PGA champion and his family and friends,’ said Woods.

The 41-year-old superstar is no stranger to the Wanamaker Trophy, on which his name is engraved four times following wins in 1999, 2000, 2006 and 2007.

But this year belonged to Thomas, who carded a three-under-par final round of 68 to finish eight under at Quail Hollow.

He finished two shots clear of Francesco Molinari, Patrick Reed and Louis Oosthuizen, who were all tied for second.

His victory continues the trend of first-time major winners. Eight of the last nine major winners had never triumphed in one of the big four events prior to their recent successes.

Before his dinner date with Woods, Thomas was embraced by his father, Mike, on the course

Mother Jani also watched on with pride in Charlotte and both parents later attended the dinner

Thomas finished the tournament on eight under, two strokes ahead of three joint runners-up
