Okay, so I was watching the RBC Heritage tournament this weekend, and I kept wondering about the cut. Like, is there even a cut at this thing? I got really into it, so I decided to figure it out, once and for all.
First, I hit up Google. You know, just a basic search – “RBC Heritage cut rules.” I scrolled through a bunch of articles, some of which had nothing to do with anything. It was pretty frustrating, to be honest.
Then, I remembered the official PGA Tour website. Duh! I should’ve started there. So I went to their site and tried to find the specific tournament page for the RBC Heritage.
It took a bit of digging, I clicked around the schedule, and finally found the RBC Heritage page. I started hunting for any mention of “cut” or “cut line.” I was scanning like crazy, eyes darting all over the place.
Figuring Out the Rules
Finally, I spotted a section, usually it is a small area about the tournament rules or something similar. I started reading, and here’s what I pieced together, it is not simple!:
- Yes, there’s a cut. I knew it! It wasn’t some kind of free-for-all all weekend.
- Top 65 and ties. This is the standard PGA Tour cut rule. The top 65 players, plus anyone tied for 65th place, make it to the weekend rounds.
- The 10-Shot Rule Is No Longer Used..
So, there you have it. I confirmed that the RBC Heritage does have a cut, and it follows the standard top 65 and ties rule. It wasn’t super easy to find, but I got there in the end. Felt pretty good to finally solve the mystery!
