The RBC Heritage is a prestigious annual golf tournament held on Hilton Head Island, SC. The event, which is part of the PGA Tour, attracts some of the world’s best golfers who compete for a share of the substantial prize money and the coveted RBC Heritage trophy.

The tournament is hosted at the iconic Harbour Town Golf Links and offers fans a unique golf experience with stunning coastal views and a relaxed atmosphere. With a rich history dating back to 1969, the RBC Heritage is one of the most anticipated events on the PGA Tour calendar and continues to be a highlight of the golfing year for players and fans alike.

 

The only annual PGA TOUR event in SC, the RBC Heritage has been played on Hilton Head Island since 1969. Its host, the Heritage Classic Foundation, donates Tournament proceeds to charitable organizations in the Lowcountry.

Today, Hilton Head Island golf courses are known around the world for challenging play and outstanding resort amenities. But in 1969, Hilton Head Island was just a little-known Lowcountry treasure. So when Sea Pines developer Charles Fraser announced a PGA-level tournament would be held at the newly created Harbour Town Golf Links over Thanksgiving weekend, people had their doubts. An unfamiliar course on a little-known island on a holiday weekend? There was no guarantee the big names in golf would be there for the first Heritage Classic.

But when both Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus (who had helped legendary golf course designer Pete Dye lay out the course) committed to play, people began to realize the Heritage Classic was going to be something special. Palmer went on to win the inaugural Heritage Classic, his first victory in 14 months, drawing even more press coverage than usual. Commentators and journalists praised Dye’s new links course and soon everyone knew that Hilton Head Island was THE new resort destination.
