RBC Heritage champ Furyk's portrait to be unveiled Oct. 1

The portrait of the 47th RBC Heritage Champion, Jim Furyk, will be unveiled Oct. 1 at the Art League of Hilton Head Gallery in the Art Center of Coastal Carolina.

The signature artwork of Furyk was painted by West Fraser.

All attendees will have a chance to win a Plaid Nation gift pack filled with RBC Heritage gifts.

The event, which runs from 5:30 to 7 p.m., is free and open to the public. Reservations are not required.
