One week before the U.S Open, the PGA TOUR heads to Oakdale Golf & Country Club in Canada for the RBC Canadian Open. About to turn 100 years old, Oakdale will be hosting Canada’s national championship for the first time. Rory McIlroy headlines the field and will be looking to build on his T7 finish at the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday last week. As a two-time defending champion of the tournament, the Northern Irishman will be the man to beat. Tyrrell Hatton enters the tournament in strong form after finishing in the top 20 in five consecutive events since the RBC Heritage in April. Matt Fitzpatrick will also have a strong chance in Canada this week. Despite an opening-round 76, he finished T9 at Muirfield Village Golf Club, five shots off the lead. He’ll look to stay hot this week in preparation for his U.S Open title defense. Expectations are high for Corey Conners. Being Canada’s highest-ranked player and finishing T12 at the recent PGA Championship, there’s anticipation he could be the first Canadian to win the national championship since Pat Fletcher in 1954. Justin Rose, Tommy Fleetwood and Shane Lowry will also be looking to take top spot in Canada.
