Following an exhilarating and exhausting final round of The Masters, the PGA Tour schedule resumes with another big event this week, the RBC Heritage, which is one of its lucrative signature events.
Last year, Scottie Scheffler followed up his victory at Augusta National with an appearance at the Harbour Town event just days afterwards. That followed the lead of Jon Rahm a year earlier, who also teed it up in South Carolina immediately after winning The Masters.
In Scheffler’s case, his commitment was rewarded in a big way when he claimed another victory in what was already a glittering season, banking prize money of $3.6m in the process. An identical sum is on offer this week too from an overall purse of $20m, with the runner-up set for a payout of $2.16m.
As well as a financial incentive, a projected 64.7 world ranking points will be claimed by the winner, as well as 700 FedEx Cup points.
Below is the prize money payout for the RBC Heritage.

Who Are The Star Names In The RBC Heritage?
Justin Rose is looking to bounce back after his Masters defeat
One player we will not see tee it up this week is the man who won The Masters, Rory McIlroy. Instead, he is having a well-earned week off after a grueling and emotionally draining four days at Augusta National, with the anticipation he will return to action alongside Shane Lowry at next week’s Zurich Classic of New Orleans.
Despite the World No.2’s absence, there are still plenty of top-class players in the 72-player field. One is defending champion Scottie Scheffler, who beat Sahith Theegala by three a year ago in a Monday finish.
The player who Scheffler succeeded as champion, Matt Fitzpatrick, also competes as well as 2022 champion Jordan Spieth, who hasn’t won since and will be keen to build some momentum ahead of his attempt to become the second player this year to complete the career Grand Slam after McIlroy.
Jordan Spieth is looking for his first win since the 2022 tournament
Other big names to look out for include the man McIlroy beat in a play-off at Augusta National, Justin Rose, who will be looking to bounce back from that disappointment after a superb performance in the Major.
Ludvig Aberg, who was firmly in contention for his maiden Major title at The Masters until nightmare last two holes saw him finish seventh, also plays, with others from the world’s top 10 in the field being Xander Schauffele, Collin Morikawa, Russell Henley, Justin Thomas, Viktor Hovland and Maverick McNealy.
How Much Does The Winner Of The RBC Heritage Get?
Like the 2023 tournament, the winner of the PGA Tour signature event will win $3.6m, while the runner-up is in line for a $2.16m payday. As a no-cut event, every player in the field will receive prize money, with even the player finishing bottom of the leaderboard set for $36,000.
Who Is In The Field For The RBC Heritage?
Some of the world’s top stars are in the field, including defending champion Scottie Scheffler, 2023 champion Matt Fitzpatrick and the winner the year before, Jordan Spieth. One player who isn’t in the field is Rory McIlroy, who is taking a week off after winning The Masters.
