The tournament provided such an important moment in Thomas’ career this time last year. Heading out of The Masters, the two-time major champion had gone almost three years without a victory on the PGA Tour.
The 32-year-old ended up winning in a playoff with Andrew Novak. Having not won since then, Thomas will be hoping that history repeats itself over the coming days. Justin Thomas comments on the changes made to Harbour Town ahead of the RBC Heritage What may not help is that there have been changes made to Harbour Town ahead of this week.
Five-time champion of the RBC Heritage, Davis Love III has been involved in the renovations to one of the more memorable stops on the PGA Tour schedule. Perhaps it is no surprise that Thomas did have reservations about the idea of changes being made to the golf course. However, speaking after a practice round, Thomas insisted that he is a big fan of what Love III has done with the venue.

I’ll see the back nine tomorrow morning. Yeah, I think Davis and his team did a great job from what I can see. I think a lot of redoes or restorations, to be perfectly honest, I think they screw the course up pretty bad.
