Stop me if you’ve heard this before: Scottie Scheffler is atop the leaderboard after 54 holes.This time, it’s at the 2024 RBC Heritage, a PGA Tour signature event, at Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head, South Carolina, where Scheffler posted masterful 8-under 63.
The world No. 1 gained over three shots on the field with his approach play Saturday, and poured in a few lengthy birdie attempts, including a near 40-footer at the short par-4 ninth.
Sepp Straka is Scheffler’s closest competitor, sitting just one shot back at 15 under thanks to a beautiful birdie on the iconic par-4 18th. The Austrian’s last win came at the John Deere Classic – the “fifth major” – in 2023.
Big names are scattered all over the leaderboard: Collin Morikawa (14 under, two back), Ludvig Aberg (13 under, three back), Sahith Theegala (13 under, three back), Patrick Cantlay (12 under, four back), Rory McIlroy (10 under, six back) and Xander Schauffele (10 under, six back).
Scheffler will have his hands full holding off that charging pack.
