After the Masters tournament, the PGA Tour’s focus has turned to its next signature event, the RBC Heritage Open. The tournament will take place at Harbour Town and will have a prize purse of $20 million, out of which $3.6 million will be the winner’s share. The field of the RBC Heritage Open will have limited players and the tournament will follow a no-cut format.
The event will see top golfers like Scottie Scheffler, who recently claimed his second green jacket, World No. 2, Rory McIlroy, Max Homa, Xander Schauffele, Wyndham Clark, Patrick Cantlay, Ludvig Aberg, among others. Aberg and Homa have been in astounding form, given their previous performances at the Masters. The field will also see Matt Fitzpatrick defending his title, alongside Jordan Spieth, who was the runner-up last year.
Since this is the fifth signature event, even the last place finisher will be getting a whopping $41000. Here’s a look at the entire prize money distribution:
