Overview

  • The RBC Heritage starts Thursday at Harbour Town with a $20 million purse, no 36‑hole cut, and $3.6 million to the winner.
  • World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is playing as the +440 favorite, while Rory McIlroy is not in the 82‑player field.
  • Harbour Town’s restored par‑71 is short and tight with small, contoured greens that place a premium on accuracy over power.
  • Defending champion Justin Thomas returns looking to repeat at a tournament recently won by major winners including Scheffler, Matt Fitzpatrick and Jordan Spieth.
  • Betting action ramped up Wednesday, with SportsLine’s 10,000‑simulation parlay highlighting Chris Gotterup top‑10 at +310 and expert Brady Kannon advising a fade of Sepp Straka.
