2022 RBC Heritage is held this week, between 14 - 17 April at Harbour Town
Stewart Cink is the defending champion after winning the event for the third time
Top 10 players like Thomas, Morikawa, and Smith are the biggest favorites

The next tournament of the 2021/22 PGA Tour is held this week at the Hilton Head Island, in South Carolina. Five of the top 10 players in the world rankings will compete. Including world No2 Collin Morikawa and 2022 The Players Championship winner Cameron Smith. The 2022 RBC Heritage winner odds still favor another player, Justin Thomas for the win at the special track in Harbour Town. There is no rest in the PGA Tour which continues after the second major tournament of the season, the 2022 Masters ended on Sunday. It was won by the new world ranking leader, Scottie Scheffler who has been in top form this year. He won’t compete at the RBC Heritage this weekend, but fans can still watch some other great players on the field. Like the other major winner of the season, Australian Cameron Smith. The world No2 Collin Morikawa or the former world ranking leader Dustin Johnson. Along with three-time tournament winner Stewart Cink who is also the defending champion. But another victory for the 48-year-old would be a huge surprise on the Pete Dye-designed challenging golf course.

2022 RBC Heritage Winner Odds Favor Thomas Ahead of Other Top 10 Players

Justin Thomas got his last victory more than a year ago after winning 2021 The Players Championship. Since then he got seven top 10 finishes. With his best result being a T3 finish at the 2022 Valspar Championship. Thomas finished eighth last weekend at The Masters following a promising start. The former world No1 is currently in 8th place in the world rankings. But he is the favorite of online sportsbooks in the US to win at Harbour Town. They offer the odds of +1100.00 for his 15th PGA Tour win. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25vmdX8po2I The 2022 RBC Heritage winner odds mention the highest-ranked player on the field, Collin Morikawa next with the odds of +1400.00. The track is perfect for his great skills in accuracy and approach play. The two-time major winner was the runner-up at this year’s Genesis Invitational and finished fifth at The Masters. Morikawa will make his third appearance at the event and aim for a better result than his last two performances. As on his first time, he finished only T64 while he was T7 last year. But following his recent form he can do much better this time.

The Chances of Former Tournament Winners

Stewart Cink is the defending champion and a real specialist of this course after winning this event three times so far. The 2009 Open Championship winner has 8 PGA Tour wins but most of his victories came more than a decade ago. His best result this season has been a T7 finish at the Valspar Championship last month. Now online gambling sites in the US only offer the odds of +12500.00 for his win. Another former winner of the RBC Heritage, Webb Simpson has a much better chance of winning according to the bookmakers. Simpson won the tournament in 2020 and got eight top-15 finishes at this course. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxCJZ2lDgx8 The 2012 US Open champion has been struggling with injuries this season. But started to improve on his last three events. His odds to win in South Carolina again are +2800.00. The winner of this year’s The Players Championship, Cameron Smith is also mentioned in the top favorites. The Australian also won the Sentry Tournament in Hawaii and finished T3 at The Masters. Now his odds to continue with another win are +1600.00 on BetOnline. Shane Lowry also finished T3 last weekend which was his best result in Augusta. The Irish golfer only has two PGA Tour wins so far. But one of them is a major win from 2019 The Open Championship. He was playing well this season and has the odds of +2000.00 to win this Sunday.
