Outright Bets for The RBC Heritage 2023

Welp. Rahm had that dawg in him like I said, and Rory's the runt of some designer brand like a cockashitz terrier or something. What a Masters it was, despite not having a dog in the hunt late on Sunday.

Now, we move on down the street about 3 hours from Augusta to Harbour Town Golf Links in HIlton Head, SC as the PGA TOUR hosts the elevated, RBC Heritage. The studs are all here (except for that Rory pup), and the course is lookin reaaaallll nice we here.

Vegas has the O/U winning score set at -16.5 as of Tuesday afternoon. The winning score has only surpassed -16 twice since 2015, excluding the 2020 version in the Summer of Covid. I think the number is high because rain is forecasted a little on Thursday and almost a sure thing on Friday. Plus, the wind is projected to really lay down on the weekend. Wind is really the only defense at Harbour Town for the best pros in the world, despite Pete Dye's best efforts.

I think the possibly softened conditions due to rain, lack of wind, and characteristics inherent at Harbour Town could set up perfectly for a mid to long range outright winner. The easier a course plays, the more possible it is for a long shot to rise amongst the best over 4 days and get hot. Plus, Harbour Town just really suits any style of golfer. You don't have to be a bomber gaining all your strokes off the tee.

I'm optimistic that this elevated event could bring some fun drama on a great course alongside a potential long shot winner rocking the tartan jacket come Sunday evening.
