RBC Heritage final scoreboard https://www.pgatour.com/competition/2020/rbc-heritage/leaderboard.html
With rounds of 65 65 68 64 -22 it's fair to say Webb Simpson, whose career took a dive after the ban on anchored putters, was well worth the win on the soft Harbour Town course at the RBC Heritage.
Even with those scores, and the fact he held the lead in the 2nd and 3rd rounds he still had to come from behind over the back nine to catch and pass Tyrrell Hatton, Abraham Ancer and Joaquin Neimann all of whom were tearing it up in front of him. He did it in style with 5 birdies in his last 7 holes.
Nice "Fathers Day" present for the guy with 5 kids and is now ranked 5th in the world.
Corey Connors started the day at -13, 2 shots behind, but he just couldn't make enough putts to keep pace, ending up T21 after his -1 70 left him at -14.
Adam Hadwin T41 at -11 after a closing 69, and Mac Hughes would rather forget Sunday with the high score of the day +7 78, T70 -3.
COVID-19 is going into phase 2 in several states with Florida leading the way with consecutive days of over 4000 new cases, numbers are up in 18 states, but the people of Hilton Head like many Americans are just ignoring it.
" I don't think they are taking it seriously around here" said Justin Thomas, " beaches are packed, restaurants are packed, nobody is wearing a mask"
This week the PGA Tour takes over the TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut for the Travelers Championship, where Corey Connors, Mac Hughes and Roger Sloan will join most of the same cast from last week. David Hearn is an alternative.

Amazing how the Team RBC-sponsored golfers seem to do well at the RBC-sponsored events. No conspiracy theory... I guess they're just motivated to try harder. I work at RBC too, so extra proud!
