Falls in playoff to JT Novak was defeated by Justin Thomas on the first playoff hole and had to settle for second place at the RBC Heritage.

Impact Novak has been in the mix for a win a number of times over the last year or so, but was unable to get the job done. That unfortunately continued on Sunday. Novak was in the final pairing and was holding steady at two-under-par through much of the back-nine. He was able to tie the lead with a big birdie putt on the par-4 16th. Novak then had a great chance to win in regulation at 18 from around eight feet. The nerves seem to get the best of him, however, as he pulled it badly and forced a playoff. Novak hit his approach to around 30 feet on the first extra hole and came up short on the putt, while Thomas would later roll in a 20-footer for birdie to end things. Novak's day will come soon enough if he continues to play really solid golf like this. He will pair up with Ben Griffin for the Zurich Classic next week.

Set to play RBC Heritage Novak is listed in the field for this week's RBC Heritage.

Impact Novak withdrew from this week's Corales Puntacana Championship after solidifying a spot in the field for the Signature Event at Harbour Town, where he'll be making his RBC Heritage debut. Novak is coming off a third-place performance at the Valero Texas Open, and he's gained strokes off the tee in seven straight starts dating back to The Genesis Invitational.

Withdraws from Corales Novak (undisclosed) has withdrawn from the 2025 Corales Championship, according to PGA Tour Communications.

Impact Not long after slipping a bid for his first win in the 2025 Valero Texas Open, Novak will not get back on the golf course immediately, with some sort of undisclosed problem affecting his Corales availability. In his place is Kyle Stanley.

Bid for first win slips away Novak had to settle for a share of third place after shooting a four-over 76 in the final round of the Valero Texas Open.

Impact Novak was the main challenger to Brian Harman for much of the final round, but ultimately just made too many mistakes in his bid for his first victory on Tour. Novak started with birdies on two of the first five holes, but closed on the front with bogeys on three of four holes. It wasn't much better on the back-nine as he birdied the par-5 14th, but made bogeys at 13, 15, 17 and 18 to slide down to T3. Harman's experience just seemed to win out and he didn't make the same number of mistakes as Novak. This was still a big week for Novak who was able to recover after not cracking the top-30 in his last five starts. He will move up to 26th in the FedExCup standings, but he needed a win to make it to The Masters next week. We'll see Novak come back the following week at the RBC Heritage, however.

Continues to play well Novak posted a four-under 68 on Sunday at The Genesis Invitational to finish tied for 13th place.

Impact Novak saved his best round of the tournament for Sunday in which he posted an eagle and five birdies to go along with three bogeys for his only round in the 60s on the week. He didn't stand out statistically in any particular area but did gain shots in every strokes gained category. Novak is having a solid start to his 2025 campaign with three top-15s across his last four starts.

The American led the field in sand saves (nine out of 10) and tanked 11th in strokes gained putting (3.749) throughout the weekend. He'll aim to continue building positive momentum next weekend when he competes in the WM Phoenix Open.
