RBC Heritage Golf Tournament

Where world-class golf meets the beauty of Hilton Head Island's Lowcountry. Experience one of the PGA TOUR's most beloved traditions at Harbour Town Golf Links.

A Tradition Unlike Any Other on the Island

Held annually at the iconic Harbour Town Golf Links on Hilton Head Island, the RBC Heritage is one of the longest-running events on the PGA TOUR. Since 1969, the tournament has drawn the world's top golfers to compete beneath the towering pines and along the shimmering marshes of the South Carolina Lowcountry. The signature red-and-white striped Harbour Town Lighthouse stands as a beacon for fans and players alike — a backdrop as recognizable as any in professional golf. Whether you're a lifelong golf fan or simply looking for a spectacular week on the island, the Heritage is a can't-miss event.
