Hilton Head – A Relaxing Tour Stop But Don’t Get Caught Speeding Getting There
For most, it’s a welcome relief travelling the 130 odd miles southeast from the stress of the Masters in Augusta, Georgia to Hilton Head in South Carolina for this week’s more relaxed RBC Heritage.
The most direct driving route is along South Carolina highway SC 125 and then turn right onto SC 321 before emerging south onto the I-95, and a short time later taking the turn-off to Hilton Head.

No, Woods didn’t win the 2022 Masters nor did he contend, but the sight of Woods some 14 months after his near fatal car crash walking all four days at golf’s revered ‘Cathedral in the Pines’ was the stuff of champions.

Renowned super-coach Butch Harmon reckons Rory McIlroy still has time on his side but he also needs a low opener if he’s to capture the one major championship he needs to join golf’s elite Grand Slam Club.

McIlroy arrives after missing the halfway cut at the Valero Texas Open and making just one birdie on day two and that was at his penultimate hole in San Antonio.
