Hilton Head Island, SC – Justin Thomas is currently leading the RBC Heritage after a strong showing following a caddie change at the Masters Tournament. His regular caddie, Matt “Rev” Minister, suffered a back injury, forcing Thomas to enlist Joe Greiner, who recently parted ways with Max Homa, as a temporary replacement at Augusta.
Despite the last-minute switch, Thomas expressed gratitude for Greiner’s assistance, noting that while Greiner is striving to help, he’s also conscious of not overstepping. “It’s a tough spot for caddies,” Thomas commented, “He’s wanting to help but also trying not to over caddie, and it’s tough. But he’s doing a great job. We’re having a lot of fun.” The pair’s lighthearted dynamic seems to have contributed positively to Thomas’s game.
While Thomas finished tied for 36th at the Masters, won by Rory McIlroy, his performance at the RBC Heritage is significantly stronger, boasting a commanding 12-under-par lead heading into the final round. This impressive showing underscores Thomas’s resilience and adaptability despite the unexpected caddie change.
