Eight past champions are making early commitments to the 47th annual RBC Heritage Presented by Boeing.  Two-time champions Stewart Cink and Boo Weekley, plus Graeme McDowell, Carl Pettersson, Brandt Snedeker, Jim Furyk, Justin Leonard and Glen Day are all slated to compete over the famed Harbour Town Golf Links.

South Carolina’s only PGA TOUR event is taking place April 13-19, 2015 on Hilton Head Island. 

McDowell earned his second win on the PGA TOUR at the 2013 RBC Heritage. He defeated Webb Simpson at Harbour Town in a sudden-death playoff. He also won two events on the European Tour in 2013, running his career total of European wins to eight.  He is currently ranked 19th in the world.

Pettersson’s 2012 victory at the RBC Heritage was his fifth on the PGA TOUR. The win tied him with Jesper Parnevik for most wins on the PGA TOUR by a Swedish player. Carl moved to Greensboro, NC with his family in high school and later attended NC State.   

After winning the 2011 Heritage, Snedeker won twice in 2012, first at the Farmers Insurance Open and then at THE TOUR Championship. He also won twice in 2013, first at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and then at the RBC Canadian Open.  

Furyk earned the Heritage trophy in 2010 then continued his winning streak at THE TOUR Championship and was ultimately named that year’s FedExCup Champion.   He has earned 16 PGA TOUR victories during his career.

Weekley enjoyed his first and second PGA TOUR wins during back-to-back appearances at the Harbour Town Golf Links. He captured his third victory and his third plaid jacket at the 2013 Crown Plaza Invitational at Colonial.

Cink is a former British Open Champion who captured the Heritage in 2000 and again in 2004. The Georgia Tech alum has earned six wins on the PGA TOUR.

Leonard has carded a dozen wins on the PGA TOUR including his 2002 victory at Harbour Town. 

Day’s career on the PGA TOUR began in 1994. He defeated Payne Stewart and Jeff Sluman in a play off to win at Harbour Town in 1999.
