Golf best bets: 3 top props for the RBC Heritage

We enjoyed a profitable Masters Tournament in prop land thanks to Cameron Young finishing inside the top 20 and Tiger Woods making the cut. Now we turn our attention to the RBC Heritage from Harbour Town Golf Links, a signature event with many of the world's best players in the field.

Here are the three props we're targeting for the RBC Heritage.

Shane Lowry top-10 finish (+330 FanDuel)

Shane Lowry is a perfect fit for Harbour Town. The Irishman ranks first on the PGA Tour this season in driving accuracy and third in strokes gained on approach. Only Scottie Scheffler and Tom Hoge have been better with their irons this year. 

It's no wonder Lowry has three top-10 finishes in his last five starts at the RBC Heritage. He's a great positional player who will put himself in the right spots to attack these small greens. If he has an average putting week, he should be able to contend for a win. 

Lucas Glover top-20 finish (+170 FD)

Lucas Glover has been a streaky player over the last year, and his arrow is pointing straight up right now. The 44-year-old is coming off three straight top-25 finishes, and he now ranks ninth on Tour this season in strokes gained on approach. He also has 66 competitive rounds and five top-25 finishes at Harbour Town under his belt.

Similarly to Lowry, Glover should be in store for a successful week as long as the putter cooperates. 

Byeong Hun An top Asian (+330 DraftKings)

This is an enticing market to target because there are only four Asian players in the field this week. Si Woo Kim is the favorite, but he's missed the cut three times and hasn't finished better than T33 in his last five starts at Harbour Town. Tom Kim is a popular pick this week because he thrives on short courses and shot a 6-under 66 in the final round of The Masters, but one day isn't enough for us to forget what's been a poor statistical season. Sungjae Im is completely lost right now with four missed cuts and one top-30 finish in his last nine starts.

Byeong Hun An, meanwhile, has gained strokes off the tee and on approach in five of his last six starts, and he already has six top-21 finishes this season. We'll bank on the most consistent option here.
