2023 RBC Heritage: Thursday, round 1 tee times, field, pairings, and featured groups
The 2023 RBC Heritage opening round is being played today, April 13, at Harbour Town Golf Links course on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina.
Just a year ago, Jordan Spieth overcame Patrick Cantlay at Harbour Town golf course in an exciting playoff after shooting a final-round 66 to drive the event’s leader to some extra holes. He claimed his 13th PGA Tour win after hitting eagles on both par 5s on the front nine on Sunday and a birdie on No. 18 to get to 13 under.
Played annually and exclusively at Harbour Town Golf Links, the RBC Heritage golf tournament is considered a favorite among PGA Tour players and spectators.
GOLF:
This year it won’t be an exception, with seven of the top 10 players in the Official World Golf Ranking—and 38 of the top 50—will be contesting in South Carolina. Also, this season, 28 of the top 30 players in the FedExCup standings and 19 of the 20 have won on the PGA Tour.
