LOS ANGELES – Justin Thomas is ready to return to competition on the golf course after spending the past three months recovering from back surgery.
After competing in the Atlanta Drive’s first of two TGL matches on Feb 23, the American quickly turned his attention to the PGA Tour’s Arnold Palmer Invitational.
“I’m excited to get back and play Bay Hill next week,” the two-time PGA Championship winner said.
That said, Thomas knows that it may take a bit of time before he returns to form.
“Obviously, I would love to play well next week, but I’m also understanding that it’ll be almost five, six months since I played a competitive tournament,” he added.
“So I’m not exactly expecting anything great, but at least everybody else will be struggling with me at Bay Hill. So that’ll make me feel a little bit better.”
