It took just two PGA Tour rounds in 2018 for another star golfer to make a caddie change. This time, though, it’s only temporary.

The AP’s Doug Ferguson reported on Saturday that Justin Thomas’ regular caddie, Jimmy Johnson, is injured. And the reigning PGA Tour Player of the Year will have a very familiar face filling in this weekend in Hawaii: His father, Mike, a longtime PGA professional.

Johnson carried Thomas’ bag the first two rounds at the Sentry Tournament of Champions, where Thomas was 27th (out of 34 players) through 36 holes. Johnson has been Thomas’ caddie since 2015 and the two have won all seven of JT’s PGA Tour titles together, including his first major at last year’s PGA Championship.
So good luck to Mike Thomas as he takes on this replacement gig. He’s got a lot to live up to — and he’s got some pretty hilly terrain to navigate at Kapalua’s Plantation Course.
