The RBC Canadian Open is pulling out all the stops this year with Rory McIlroy leading the charge at TPC Toronto in Osprey Valley, Ontario. A golfer famed for his electrifying performances, McIlroy brings a wave of anticipation to the lush greens of Canada’s most prestigious tournament.
Skipping the Memorial Tournament was no small decision for McIlroy, but his sights are set on an ambitious three-week golf marathon: the RBC Canadian Open, followed by the U.S. Open, and culminating at the Travelers Championship, which is this season’s final marquee event.
McIlroy's love affair with the Canadian Open is well-documented. The world No. 2 clinched victory in 2019 and again in 2022, carved out a top-ten finish in 2023, and secured a fourth-place tie last year. With this upcoming event, he’ll be tackling a new venue. TPC Toronto marks the fourth course McIlroy will navigate in his five appearances here.
Established in 1904, the RBC Canadian Open is not just another stop on the PGA TOUR. It's steeped in history, standing tall as the second-oldest tournament after the venerable BMW Championship. As golf fans descend on TPC Toronto's North Course for the 2025 showdown, this tournament becomes just the eighth unique venue to host since 1977.
With McIlroy in the limelight, and a field infused with fresh faces, the stage is set for riveting golf drama. As players ready their drives and greens await their challengers, the RBC Canadian Open promises to deliver unforgettable moments on its storied fairways.
