The 2025 RBC Canadian Open is underway at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley, drawing fans and golf’s top talent to Caledon, Ontario, from June 5 to 8. With a total purse of $9.8 million and prime weather conditions for competition, the PGA Tour event has already seen standout performances in the opening rounds.
American golfer Cameron Champ currently tops the leaderboard at 12-under-par, following a solid second round at four under. Not far behind is fellow American Andrew Putnam, who surged with an impressive eight-under on Friday to move to 10-under overall. A tight group of international players sits tied for third at nine-under, including Canada’s Nick Taylor and Richard T. Lee, Denmark’s Thorbjørn Olesen, and a strong showing from across the globe.
Several Canadian players remain in contention and are receiving strong support from the hometown crowd. Taylor Pendrith and Mackenzie Hughes are both within striking distance, sitting at seven and six-under respectively. Meanwhile, Corey Conners and Adam Hadwin remain steady deeper in the field, keeping national hopes alive heading into the weekend.
The field is tightly packed, with more than a dozen players within five strokes of the lead. This includes names like Shane Lowry of Ireland, Ryan Fox from New Zealand, and Italy’s Matteo Manassero, all at eight-under. Defending champion Rory McIlroy, however, is struggling after a rough round that included an eight on the par-5 fifth, leaving him well below the cutline at nine-over.
With the weekend rounds approaching, the North Course at Osprey Valley promises more drama, and Canadian fans are hopeful for a homegrown winner. The RBC Canadian Open remains one of golf’s most historic tournaments, and 2025’s edition is already delivering high-caliber play.
