🏆 Who'll win the RBC Heritage?
Here are my golf picks for Round 2 of the RBC Heritage on Friday:
Ludvig Aberg (+390)
Ludvig Aberg looks primed to win the RBC Heritage after taking the solo lead at 8-under following a dominant opening round. His precision off the tee and elite iron play are perfect fits for Harbour Town Golf Links, a course that rewards accuracy over power.
Aberg’s confidence is clearly surging, and when he gets hot with the putter, he’s difficult to catch. With favorable conditions and momentum on his side, he’s in a strong position to maintain his lead and close out a statement victory this weekend.
💰 Best Round 2 props for the RBC Heritage
Min Woo Lee: Top Oceania (+270)
Min Woo Lee is in a solid position to emerge as the top Oceania player at the RBC Heritage despite sitting at 1-under after the opening round. While he’s currently chasing fellow Oceania standout Ryan Fox, who jumped out to 6-under, the gap is far from insurmountable on a course like Harbour Town Golf Links.
Lee’s creative shot-making and strong short game make him a great fit for Harbour Town’s tight fairways and demanding approach shots. He also has the scoring ability to string together birdies in bunches, which is critical in making up ground quickly. If his putter heats up, Lee has the firepower to close the gap on Fox and ultimately overtake him as the top performer from Oceania this week.
Scottie Scheffler: Top USA (+340)
Scottie Scheffler is in a strong position to finish as the top American at the RBC Heritage after opening with a solid 3-under round. That score may not have him at the very top of the leaderboard, but it keeps him well within striking distance heading into the weekend at Harbour Town Golf Links.
Scheffler’s consistency tee-to-green is a major advantage on a course that demands precision over power. He rarely makes costly mistakes and excels at positioning himself for scoring chances. If his putter performs even at an average level, his elite ball-striking should allow him to climb past the rest of the American field. With his steady form and ability to go low in any round, Scheffler is a strong bet to emerge as the top USA finisher.
Viktor Hovland: Top 5 (+125)
Viktor Hovland is in an excellent position to secure a top-5 finish at the RBC Heritage after an impressive opening round that has him tied for second at 7-under. Starting fast at Harbour Town Golf Links is critical, and Hovland has already shown he’s comfortable navigating its tight fairways and small greens.
His elite ball-striking gives him a consistent edge, especially on a course that rewards precision approach play. When Hovland is dialed in with his irons, he creates plenty of birdie chances, and his improved short game has helped eliminate past weaknesses. Sitting just one shot off the lead, he won’t need to force anything early, allowing him to stay patient and capitalize on scoring opportunities. If he maintains this form, a top-five finish is well within reach.
