J.T. Poston took the early lead at the 2024 RBC Heritage. The 30-year-old golfer shot 8-under 63 on Thursday to take a two-stroke lead at the Harbour Town Golf Links. The two-time PGA Tour will return to the course for round 2 on Friday, April 19 at 1:20 pm ET. Keegan Bradley will join him on the first tee.
For the unversed, Poston had a remarkable run on Thursday. The North Carolina native chipped in from 65 feet on the par-3 fourth hole, and followed it up with three straight birdies. He then made a 15-foot birdie putt on the short par-4 ninth and followed that up with another birdie from 10 feet to enter the back nine. Fans lauded his performance at the course.
Poston arrived in South Carolina on the back of a T30 finish at the Masters. He closed with a 70 at Augusta National last Sunday as Scottie Scheffler claimed the Green Jacket for the second time in his career. While Scheffler came into the RBC Heritage as a favorite, Poston was deemed a longshot pick.

According to SportsLine, he had 70-1 odds to win this weekend, which has significantly increased since round 1. Interestingly, this is also Poston's first time traveling with his month-old daughter, Katherine Scott.
