The 2026 RBC Heritage heads to the iconic Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, South Carolina, from April 16-19, following a thrilling Masters tournament at Augusta National.
The PGA Tour is back at Hilton Head for one of its most scenic and strategic tests of the season.
The Pete Dye‑designed Harbour Town layout rewards precision, creativity and short‑game brilliance rather than brute strength – making it a favourite among shot‑makers and tactical players.
The par‑71 course measures just over 7,100 yards and with narrow fairways, small greens, and coastal winds Harbour Town requires sharp iron control, patience and strategic positioning.

Leading 2026 RBC Heritage Contenders
Scottie Scheffler
Scottie Scheffler arrives at Harbour Town after a strong Masters performance and still looks like the class act in the field.
His 2026 season has again been defined by elite tee-to-green consistency, and that form translates perfectly to a course that rewards precision over power.
He also owns a proven record at RBC Heritage, having won here in 2024, which only strengthens his case as the clear betting favourite.
Xander Schauffele
Xander Schauffele comes in off another solid major week at Augusta and has continued to show dependable top-level form throughout 2026.
His game is built for Harbour Town, where accuracy, wedge play, and composure matter more than brute force.
While his past RBC Heritage record has not been as decorated as some of the others here, his all-round consistency makes him one of the most dangerous players in the field.
Matt Fitzpatrick
Matt Fitzpatrick’s Masters week showed the sort of controlled, disciplined golf that suits him so well, and he remains one of the best tactical players on the PGA Tour.
His 2026 form has been very encouraging, and his past Harbour Town success stands out, with a win at the 2023 RBC Heritage under his belt.
That combination of current momentum and course history makes him a major threat again this week.
Cameron Young
Cameron Young has been one of the most improved performers of 2026, with his recent form enough to put him firmly among the leading contenders.
His week at Augusta added to the sense that he is knocking on the door in big events, and his ball-striking has been sharp enough to travel well to Harbour Town.
While this course has traditionally favoured precision over power, Young has the tools to adapt if he keeps the ball in play.
Russell Henley
Russell Henley continues to look like an ideal Harbour Town fit, especially with his recent 2026 form showing the kind of consistency that wins on tight, strategic courses.
After a solid Masters showing, he looks well placed to contend again if the putter stays cooperative.
