Fisherman gets chased off Harbour Town, then shoots 62 to lead RBC Heritage

Cameron Smith might be unwinding this week in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, but that doesn’t mean he can’t also win the tournament.

Coming off a pressure-packed major week at demanding Augusta National, Smith opened the RBC Heritage with a career-best, 9-under 62 Thursday at Harbour Town. The Aussie, who holed a bunker shot on the par-3 17th and then nearly holed out for eagle at the last, leads Stewart Cink by a shot.

“I feel like after last week, I feel like chipping around here is almost like a breeze,” said Smith, one of the best chippers on Tour.
