The drama at the 2024 RBC Heritage continues to unfold as darkness interrupted what seemed to be a triumphant march for Scottie Scheffler towards his fourth victory in five starts. The picturesque Harbour Town Golf Links in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, became the stage for an intense battle against both competitors and the elements.
As the sun dipped below the horizon on Sunday, play was halted not once, but twice, due to inclement weather. The final round, which had Scheffler leading with a comfortable margin, was suspended at 4:28 p.m. ET, with lightning in the area being the primary concern. However, hopes were raised when play was set to resume at 7 p.m. ET after a two-and-a-half-hour delay. Alas, the respite was short-lived as darkness forced another halt just under an hour later at 7:47 p.m. ET.
Now, the golfing world eagerly awaits the conclusion of the 56th RBC Heritage Presented by Boeing. With nine players left to finish their rounds and Scheffler himself having three holes remaining, the question on everyone’s mind is, “When will the RBC Heritage resume?”
The answer lies in the early hours of Monday morning. At 8 a.m. ET, the final round will resume, promising a thrilling climax to an already captivating tournament. Scheffler, holding a commanding five-stroke lead at 20 under, will need to maintain his composure as he navigates the remaining challenges on the course.
The 2024 RBC Heritage has been a showcase of skill, resilience, and the unpredictable nature of golf. From Scheffler’s near-flawless performance to the valiant efforts of players like Wyndham Clark, Patrick Cantlay, J.T. Poston, and Sahith Theegala, each moment has been filled with excitement and anticipation.
