PGA Tour: RBC Heritage Tournament Preview and Pick

RBC Heritage

The RBC Heritage is the next event on the PGA Tour calendar. Golfers will compete at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, South Carolina, for a chance to get a share of the $20,000,000 prize purse. Scottie Scheffler is the clear favorite to win here, with moneyline odds from MyBookie at +360.

RBC Heritage Betting Preview

The RBC Heritage dates back to 1969, where Arnold Palmer won the first event. Since this event has followed after the Masters, its close proximity to Georgia naturally leads to the best golfers hanging close by for another good tournament. The popularity of the RBC Heritage ensures top players return each year.

The Harbour Town Golf Links measures about 7,210 yards and is a Par 71. According to the stroke index in 2024, the average for this event was 69.35. In other words, golfers were able to at least do better than par.

Golfers typically love to play here, as the course is not overly difficult but does have somewhat narrow fairways. The greens run a little bit fast so golfers must pay attention to their placing when approaching in the RBC Heritage.

Golfers That Could Win

The RBC Heritage is a course that any professional can win on. They must be consistent off the tee and accurate. Greens in regulation is also key here. Golfers must be able to make it to the green in as little as shots as possible. Below are some golfers that could claim victory here.

Collin Morikawa +1100

Morikawa will be the one to challenge Scheffler here for the title. He finished ninth here last season with a final score of -13, but has recorded appealing numbers since that event.

He is currently ranked as the fourth-best golfer in the world. He has excellent momentum. He recently had a T14 at the Masters, T10 at The Players, and a second place finish at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. His early performance suggests he could do well at the RBC Heritage.

Xander Schauffele +1200

Schauffele has had mixed results to start this season. He is currently ranked third in the world rankings. However, he has only recently started playing at that level over the last few events. The RBC Heritage might be his chance to regain form.

He placed T12 at the Valspar Championship and T8 at the Masters. He also had a T18 placing here a year ago. This positive momentum could be a good sign for this upcoming event.

MyBookie has the best RBC Heritage betting odds. These odds currently favor Scottie Scheffler. Another week goes by, and he is favored to win once again. This is a likely story each time he plays.

Scheffler is the reigning champ of this event. He won the Masters a year ago and then followed up with this one. In last week’s Masters, he came in fourth. He has placed in the top-10 four times this season. This shows he is one of the most consistent players in the game and a well-deserved number one ranking. Among the RBC Heritage competitors, he stands out.

Another appealing bet to make would be Scheffler to place in the top 10 at -275. You could go a little bolder at a top five placing at -125.

Final Pick: Scottie Scheffler +360
