Rory McIlroy to Lose Millions for Skipping RBC Heritage.

Rory McIlroy's decision to withdraw from the RBC Heritage will cost him $3 million of the $12 million he earned from the Player Impact Program last year, as players who placed in the PIP are required to play all but one designated event in 2023 to receive their winnings. McIlroy, who finished runner-up in the PIP last year, has already reportedly been awarded $9 million of the $12 million he earned in PIP funds. Reigning Masters champion Jon Rahm will be in attendance despite a career achievement last week, saying he wanted to show up because he made a commitment.

Rory McIlroy's RBC Heritage Withdrawal Raises Questions for PGA Tour.

Rory McIlroy's withdrawal from the RBC Heritage Open has added scrutiny to the PGA Tour's decision to schedule a designated event with a $20 million purse the week after the Masters. McIlroy previously withdrew from the Sentry Tournament of Champions, and unless there is a legitimate medical reason, he could lose a percentage of his Player Impact Program reward. The PGA Tour's new format, which limits designated events to 70-80 players and is a no-cut format, has frustrated some players. The RBC Heritage Open tees off at Harbour Links in Hilton Head, S.C., on Thursday.
