As noted, the picturesque RBC Heritage is set against the stunning backdrop of Harbour Town Golf Links. This gem of a course isn’t about overpowering the layout; it’s about precision and finesse. With tight fairways, small greens and strategic hazards, Harbour Town demands accuracy off the tee and masterful approach shots. Nestled along the coast, this venue adds an unpredictable element, with ocean winds potentially influencing play.
Scattered showers are expected throughout the week, which may keep the course soft and receptive. While wind isn’t expected to be a significant factor, being a coastal course, it’s wise to monitor any potential changes that could impact play.
Our projected winning score is around -20, as this elevated event has no cut. Past champions like Matthew Fitzpatrick and Webb Simpson have demonstrated the importance of consistency and scoring well across all four rounds.
