Before I dive into my Draftkings player selections for this event, let’s take a quick look at the golf course the field will play and the key player statistics that I think are the most vital to a player’s success at this week’s 2025 RBC Heritage.

Scheffler is currently ranked sixth in strokes gained approach (0.871), first in par four scoring average (3.91), third in overall strokes gained (2.001) sixth in strokes gained off the tee (0.616) and first in bogey avoidance (10.12%) on the PGA Tour.
Scheffler also looks great from an event/course history standpoint. Scheffler has played the RBC Heritage two times since 2023. In those two events just mentioned, Scottie Scheffler has amassed two top 11 finishes, including a win at the 2024 RBC Heritage.
