Justin Thomas, after holding the 36-hole lead at the RBC Heritage, faced a dramatic third round at Harbour Town Golf Links. Thomas, who delivered a course record-tying in the opening round, started Saturday tied at the top but encountered trouble on the back nine, including a costly bogey at the 11th after hitting into the water and another stumble at the 15th that allowed Si Woo Kim to surge ahead.
Kim’s steady play, capped by a birdie on the 15th, propelled him past Thomas and Andrew Novak. Heading into Sunday’s final round, Kim holds a slim one-shot lead over both Thomas and Novak, setting up a tense finish in Hilton Head, South Carolina.
The leaderboard remains tightly packed, with world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler also within striking distance after a steady performance through three rounds. With just holes left, all eyes are on whether Thomas can rally to end his winless drought, or if Kim and the chasing pack will hold him off in one of the PGA Tour’s signature events.
