The RBC Canadian Open was first established in 1904, making it the third oldest continuously running tournament on the PGA Tour.
Throughout that time, many big names have won the event and, for 2025, it's Robert MacIntyre who returns to defend his title that he won alongside his father, Dougie, last year.

As well as the Canadian Open trophy, there's also a significant amount of prize money on offer at TPC Toronto, which stages its first RBC Canadian Open tournament.
Although it's not the $20 million we see on offer at the PGA Tour's Signature Events, players are still vying for $9.8 million, with the winner taking home $1.764 million for their efforts.

Last year, $9.4 million was up for grabs in terms of the tournament purse and, with his victory, MacIntyre netted a tidy $1.692 million.
Like most PGA Tour victories, the winner will also receive 500 FedEx Cup points, as well as points towards their Official World Golf Ranking position. What's more, they will also receive a two-year exemption on their PGA Tour card, as well as invites to Majors and Signature Events.
Below is the prize money payout for the RBC Canadian Open.
