The PGA Tour is back just a week on from the exhilarating 2025 Masters. Here is all you need to know about the upcoming 2025 RBC Heritage.
Fresh off the back of Rory McIlroy completing the career Grand Slam at the 2025 Masters, the PGA Tour continues at the 2025 RBC Heritage.
The world’s best golfers will compete for a total purse of $20 million at the Harbour Town Golf Links in South Carolina, in an event won last year by the great Scottie Scheffler.
Find out more about the competition, including who is competing, the golfers to keep an eye on, and how you can watch.
When is the 2025 RBC Heritage?
The competition begins on Thursday, April 17 and runs through to Sunday, April 20, when the winner will be crowned.
The RBC Heritage will be played from 2 pm – 6 pm EST on Thursday and Friday, and 1 pm – 6 pm EST on the weekend.
Who will be playing at the 2025 RBC Heritage?
Following his Augusta heroics, McIlroy won’t be competing in South Carolina – enjoying a well-earned break with his new Green Jacket.
He is one of only a few highly ranked players not playing in the competition, which features some of the biggest names on the PGA Tour.
After failing to defend his Masters title, Scheffler will be hoping to go back-to-back at the RBC Heritage against another talent-packed field. It would be Scheffler’s first win in 2025 as the two-time Masters winner looks for a return to his once-dominant form.
Also taking to the course will be Justin Rose, who narrowly missed out on Masters glory last weekend, former winner Jordan Spieth, and the likes of Xander Schauffele, Collin Morikawa and Ludvig Aberg.
There is no cut for the competitors in this event, so you can watch your favourites for all four days!

2025 RBC Heritage golfers to watch
Scheffler, who handed the Green Jacket to McIlroy, will have the bit between his teeth this weekend eyeing his first win of 2025.
As the defending champion, he can carry confidence into the event with his knowledge of the course. Harbour Town Golf Links is a course for precision golf, suiting Scheffler’s game to a tee.
However, eyeing his crown is Schauffele, who recorded an understated top 10 finish at the Masters at five under.
Aberg, who was in contention for the Green Jacket until late on Masters Sunday, will hope to rebound from last weekend’s disappointment. Morikawa, the third-ranked golfer in the tournament, will look to bounce back from his dip in form in recent months with a win this weekend.
How to watch the 2025 RBC Heritage
For American viewers, the RBC Heritage can be seen on the Golf Channel and NBC Sports App throughout the competition, until CBS takes over the coverage from 3 pm EST on Sunday.
Viewers in the UK can watch all of the tournament on Sky Sports Golf.
