After finishing second at last week’s Masters, Scottie Scheffler is the odds-on favorite to claim this week’s RBC Heritage at Hilton Head Island, S.C. This Signature Event tournament, which begins on Thursday, will be played on the par-71, 7,243-yard Harbour Town Golf Links. Scheffler enters at +440, while Justin Thomas, who won last year’s event, is at +4500.
Among the other favorites include Xander Schauffele (+1500), Matt Fitzpatrick (+1600), Russell Henley (+1600), Cameron Young (+1800) and Russell Henley (+1800). Before making any 2026 RBC Heritage picks, you need to see the 2026 RBC Heritage predictions and best bets from golf expert Brady Kannon.

Top 2026 RBC Heritage expert picks
One of Kannon’s 2026 RBC Heritage predictions: He’s fading Sepp Straka, who is at 40-1, avoiding him in outright bets and head-to-head bets.
“Straka definitely makes sense at this golf course, given his skill set but he hasn’t been sharp in his last two starts,” Kannon told SportsLine. “I believe his price here is too short, and despite that, he appears to be a very popular choice this week. That is a combination of red flags that has me staying away from Straka and maybe even someone that I will directly oppose in a head-to-head matchup.
“As mentioned, there is no cut at this event, and Straka has fared well here a few times in the past, but he missed the cut two weeks ago in San Antonio and was very pedestrian at The Masters. Now, Augusta may not be the best fit for Straka, but he did not do anything very well, losing strokes putting, was flat around the green, and only recorded one of four rounds below par.” See who Kannon is backing at SportsLine.
