RBC Canadian Open 2025: Full Schedule and How to Watch Live on TV

The PGA Tour returns this week to the Great White North for the RBC Canadian Open, one of the oldest non-majors on the golf tour. TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley will be the new host course this year, though, as both Canadians and non-Canadians try to gain some momentum ahead of the US Open.

One week before the U.S. Open, the PGA Tour will go to TPC Toronto for the second-oldest non-major tournament, the RBC Canadian Open. The winner will receive $1,764,000, and the field of 156 players will compete for a $9.8 million purse.

Rory McIlroy, a two-time champion of this event, is taking part after missing the Memorial, the event’s main event, last week.

He holds the Canadian Open aggregate scoring record of 258, which he set in 2019, and he has placed in the top 10 in each of his past four appearances, including a T-4 result last year.

The reigning champion, Robert MacIntyre, is also taking part. The Scot won his maiden PGA Tour tournament a year ago, and it was even more remarkable since his father, Dougie, the greenkeeper, was on the bag. After their triumph, they had an incredible embrace on the 18th green. Mike Burrows, MacIntyre’s regular looper, is joining him this year. Another year will see Dougie MacIntyre continue his unbeaten streak at the RBC Canadian Open.

Before Oakmont, many of the top players in the game, including McIlroy and MacIntyre, will receive training. Players in the top 25 of OWGR, In addition to Canadian golf legend Mike Weir and Nick Taylor, who became the first native son to win the Canadian Open in decades with his 2023 victory, Ludvig Åberg, Shane Lowry, Justin Rose, Corey Conners, Sungjae Im, and Wyndham Clark are also competing.

500 FedEx Cup points and a $1.764 million portion of the $9.8 million prize pool will be awarded to this week’s winner.

The PGA Tour’s last event before the season’s third major championship takes place in the Great White North. With the North Course at TPC Toronto hosting players for 72 holes during the weekend, the 2025 RBC Canadian Open takes center stage as the national open moves to its 38th different host venue in tournament history.

World No. 2 Rory McIlroy is returning to competition at TPC Toronto, a brand-new golf course that competitors will have to pick up quickly. The five-time major champion is competing in his first competition after a lackluster showing at the PGA Championship, hoping to get back on track at a tournament he has won twice before.

Several of McIlroy’s European Ryder Cup colleagues, including Ludvig Åberg, Shane Lowry, Justin Rose, and reigning champion Robert MacIntyre, join him on the field.

This week is all about the men who wear the maple leaf, even though the Europeans will be running rampant, as will an American delegation that includes Sam Burns, Wyndham Clark, Cameron Young, and Max Homa, among others.

As the top-ranked Canadian in the world going into the tournament, World No. 21 Corey Conners is looking to build on his recent strong performance at the national open. The 2023 winner, Nick Taylor, is hoping to win his second event championship in the previous three seasons at the Memorial after making it to the finals. Adam Hadwin, Mackenzie Hughes, Taylor Pendrith, and others complete the group.

As players get ready for the penultimate competition leading up to the 2025 U.S. Open, let’s look at how you can watch the action.
