NOTE: Sleeper Picks did not appear in Rob\u2019s Power Rankings<\/a>, but each presents value for the bet specified.<\/p>\n Sahith Theegala (+8600) … As he\u2019s reignited this season, it\u2019s only a matter of time before he wins again, so why not this week\u2019s RBC Heritage? He\u2019s already risen for a solo second (2024) and a T5 (2023) in four trips to Harbour Town Golf Links, so it wouldn\u2019t be a surprise in that context. As a natural feel player who saves strokes on approach and sits among the TOUR\u2019s elite around and on greens, that potent combination explains his success on the Pete Dye design. He\u2019s also already connected for four top 10s this season, including a T10 in his last outing at the Texas Children\u2019s Houston Open, so that logic also squares. The juice is how long these odds are for a guy who, while didn\u2019t qualify for the Masters but hasn\u2019t missed a Signature Event this season, is locked in and benefits from two weeks off to reset and prep.<\/p>\n *:not(style){overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0px;right:0px;bottom:0px;left:0px;display:-webkit-box;display:-webkit-flex;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-webkit-box-pack:center;-ms-flex-pack:center;-webkit-justify-content:center;justify-content:center;-webkit-align-items:center;-webkit-box-align:center;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center;width:100%;height:100%;}.css-17ygvlf>img,.css-17ygvlf>video{object-fit:cover;}.css-17ygvlf::before{height:0px;content:””;display:block;padding-bottom:56.25%;}]]> Sahith Theegala holes out 46-foot birdie putt on No. 6 at Texas Children’s<\/p>\n Akshay Bhatia (+850) … Well, this was a treat to find him all the way down the board just one month removed from his victory in the last Signature Event. After he emerged with the title at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard, the lefty answered with a T13 at THE PLAYERS Championship but then missed consecutive cuts in India and at the Masters. Now promised four rounds at Harbour Town, where his best outcome is a T18 in 2024, the angle is to lean back into the explosive scorer who also has a T3 at the WM Phoenix Open this year. He last appeared as a sleeper for the same finish for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, where he led after three rounds before the bad beat of a T6. It\u2019s time to get paid back for payback.<\/p>\n J.T. Poston (+465) … The 32-year-old is off to a sluggish start with just one top-30 finish, but it was in his most recent appearance at the Valero Texas Open where he placed T21. It was a personal best in six trips to TPC San Antonio, and he scored progressively lower in every round. Still, why the perceived reach for this result at Harbour Town? Well, he\u2019s among the Carolina crew in the field who has proven to be quite comfortable in these climes. Since his debut in 2019, he\u2019s cashed five of seven times, all for a T11 or better. His veteran blend of shot-shaping with elite putting was built for the course.<\/p>\n Ryo Hisatsune (+200) … Gotta love twice the investment to pay off a finish he\u2019s delivered five times in his last eight starts. The surge includes a T8 in his debut at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and a T13 at THE PLAYERS. The fearless 23-year-old leads the PGA TOUR in greens hit and ranks inside the top 20 in Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee, Strokes Gained: Tee-to-Green and adjusted scoring. And in his first look at Harbour Town last year, he recorded a steady T18 amid a similarly strong groove.<\/p>\n Ryo Hisatsune hits 122-yard approach to 3 feet, sets up birdie on No. 10 at Valero<\/p>\n David Lipsky (+350) … Classic sleeper and one of only a handful of PGA TOUR non-winners in the field. This market does not include ties, so he\u2019ll be shorter if you shop in one that does, but pounce on the potential for this kickback. Slots 42nd in the FedExCup with a runner-up finish at the Valspar Championship leading the way, but he also bagged a T18 at the Farmers Insurance Open. As it concerns the level of difficulty of all host tracks this season, Copperhead and Torrey Pines rank a respective third and fourth behind Augusta National (Masters) and TPC Sawgrass (THE PLAYERS), so he\u2019s played up to the challenges. He\u2019s among TOUR leaders in finding fairways, and he\u2019s accurate enough on approach with a sharp short game poised to clean up where necessary.<\/p>\n Tom Hoge (+240) … Like the market for the Top 30 above, this also does not factor in ties, but that\u2019s OK. In fact, given his track record at Harbour Town since it\u2019s hosted a Signature Event (2024-present), it won\u2019t matter. He finished T18 and scored 9-under 275 both times. And while he\u2019s not performing to the caliber that yielded a full slate of Signature Events this season, he\u2019s still managed three top 40s, the most recent of which was a T14 at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am where he now has five top 20s in his last six appearances. It\u2019s evidence that he\u2019s a horse for certain courses no matter the kind of form upon arrival that allows for longer odds like these.<\/p>\n Odds were sourced at DraftKings.<\/p>\n For resources to overcome a gambling problem, call or text 1-800-MY-RESET today.<\/p>\n *:not(style){overflow:hidden;position:absolute;top:0px;right:0px;bottom:0px;left:0px;display:-webkit-box;display:-webkit-flex;display:-ms-flexbox;display:flex;-webkit-box-pack:center;-ms-flex-pack:center;-webkit-justify-content:center;justify-content:center;-webkit-align-items:center;-webkit-box-align:center;-ms-flex-align:center;align-items:center;width:100%;height:100%;}.css-11jnzpa>img,.css-11jnzpa>video{object-fit:cover;}.css-11jnzpa::before{height:0px;content:””;display:block;padding-bottom:66.66666666666666%;}]]> Apr 13, 2026<\/p>\n The First Look: TOUR heads to Hilton Head for next Signature Event<\/a>The First Look<\/a>![\"Sahith](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/1776199450_238_image.jpg\")
