There is no time for a post-Masters golf lull as a really strong RBC Heritage gets cranked at Harbour Town Golf Links this week. Dustin Johnson, Collin Morikawa, Tyrrell Hatton, Webb Simpson and Patrick Cantlay make up half of the top 10 players in the world, and all five are in the field this week at the RBC Heritage.
The scenes in Hilton Head are always terrific, but this is also an interesting course that is not biased toward hitting the ball 9 million yards. It’s why we’ve seen players like C.T. Pan, Webb Simpson, Matt Kuchar and Brian Gay win here, but also golfers like Dustin Johnson, Patrick Cantlay and Bryson DeChambeau (who was a late scratch) find some success as well.
I went deep on the course setup here after Simpson won this tournament last June, and I’m looking forward to seeing it again with a really strong field (half of the top 30 in the world will also be there) trying to solve it.
With two rounds of action in the books in Hilton Head, the story heading into the weekend has been the play of 47-year-old Stewart Cink. He grabbed the lead at Harbour Town on Friday, and in doing so, set the 36-hole record at the course after posting back-to-back 63s. Cink sits alone atop the leaderboard now at 16 under with Corey Conners sitting five shots back in second place.
Here’s how you can follow throughout the week.
