McIlroy misses, Justin Thomas, Scottie Scheffler headlines the Full field at 2026 RBC Heritage field in Harbour Town, S.C.
After the Masters, and the months of buildup preceding it, the PGA Tour takes its traditional chill-out week at the RBC Heritage in Hilton Head, S.C.
Hilton Head Island is a laid-back spot where you might sleep in a little, take a long walk on the beach, grab a leisurely meal—and not spend every waking moment on your day job.
So even though the RBC Heritage is a signature event, with the requisite $4 million purse and boosted FedEx Cup points, the Tour’s best may not all be grinding away on the practice tee at Harbour Town Golf Links early this week. They’ll be taking a day or two to recharge.
Justin Thomas returns to the shores of Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, to defend his title won in an epic playoff over Andrew Novak. A loaded field will head to Harbour Town Golf Links, including world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, 2025 FedExCup champion Tommy Fleetwood and THE PLAYERS champion Cameron Young.
The Signature Events bring together the game’s top players, pitting them on historic courses to play for elevated purses and FedExCup points. Players qualify for Signature Events via the highest category for which they are eligible on the Priority Ranking. See the field list below.
Harbour Town is one of great tactician’s courses on Tour, a 7,213 par-71 that cannot be tamed with a driver. Players have to maneuver around a classic lowcountry setting with overhanging limbs from oak, palm and palmetto trees, and tackle the Tour’s smallest greens. You’ll see more holeouts from off greens this week than any other, because the putting surfaces are so small.
The winner will get $3.6 million, 700 FedEx Cup points and a tartan jacket— perhaps the second most iconic jacket in golf.
