RBC Canadian Open There is an ability to give dramatic moments.
Three years ago, Rory Mcilroy defended his title by defeating Tony Finau and Justin Thomas. At the beginning of the Liv Golf-PGA Tour war, Mcilroy celebrated his victory with a Jab in the then Golf CEO and Commissioner Greg Norman. In 2023, Canadian Nick Taylor Drenoi an eagle kick 72 feet to defeat Tommy Fleetwood in a play off. Last year, Robert Macintyre won with his father in his bag as a filled caddy.
The 2025 edition will not be remembered in the same light as the ones mentioned above, but there were many drama on Sunday in Caldeon, Ontario.
Sam Burns went out Sunday at TPC Toronto in Osprey Valley and fired an eight-nine 62-round round to get the club’s lead. Burns waited two hours as co-leader with 54 holes, Matteo Manasseer and Ryan Fox, and other potential contenders made their way around the course.
Cameron Young Chance
Burns observed Kevin Yu and made a rise and fall and get up again. Then came the first real challenger: Cameron Young.
Burns saw a young Blitz bomb on his way to leadership and gave himself a chance to win regulation with an eagle in par-5 18. Young exploded his car and then smoked 3-died died in the wind. Walking after his second blow, Young believed he had hit the needed blow to give him a winning blow. Instead, the ball pulled through the wind, jumped over the green and was placed in thick thick from the back. Young eventually did Bogey, and Burns avoided a challenger.
“At this moment, a lot of anger, a little disappointment,” Young said after T4 ended. “I couldn’t have hit two best shots in the last hole. I didn’t hit 3-Dru so far, and it was blowing directly in the wind, and decided to dance all the way to the back forests. I thought in the air I would have a 12 pedestrian to win the tournament, and she ended up somewhere, I would fight to do so.
A good felt story that fell short
Burns stayed warming up in the range while other contenders left his 18th sign for the tournament.
He avoided yu and one. He looked like as Manasseer, a The former golf gum that once found the end of the rock In Pro Golf, let his chance go to a changing career victory.
“It was a nice week,” Manasseer said after finishing in a tie for sixth place. “My game is trending in the right direction for sure, and I think you finally end up winning tours, you have to spend days like this you teach you how to improve something that can probably get better. Today, my game was probably not as good as other days. I think that’s something you can feel alone get it in that and know that I have to get what I have to work on that kind of pressure.
Playoff “pillow fight” with a fox
Finally, all that remained was Fox, 38-year-old Zealander who just won his first PGA Tour event with a chip during a play-off at Myrtle Beach Classic.
After the birds at 14 and 15, Fox sat only a burning stroke with three holes to play, including par-5 18. Fox lost a 24-foot blow to Birdie in 16 and then lost an eight-foot for Birdie in 17.
Burns just stayed in the range, sending balls to the Toronto sky, hoping that he could avoid a last contender.
Fox struck the 18th street of Fairway, stretched out with his second and fastened the third in 17 meters. The young Zealander gave his birds a safe blow, but it seemed like he left it to the left. As he approached the hole, the ball crawls back to the cup and barely slipped into the side door to send the 2025 RBC Canadian open for a play off.
From there, the drama stuck.
Burns and Fox both make the two in the first hole of the Play Off, with Burns, statistically the best PGA Tour placed, losing a six-legged bird blow for victory. Nor did he touch the hole. Both players became the first again during their next trip to 18, with Fox leaving his bird’s effort short.
Once the location of the hole was changed to the front right of the green, burns and fox played the 18th hole for the third time. The two settled with their second shot and made a third mess of them. Fox drew long and left in the back green as Burns threw it forward and almost in the water. Both players again made it first.
Finally, the fourth time was a beauty.
Both players blisered their drives to give them a blow to go green in two. Fox had 258 in the hole and struck a magnificent 3-tank that landed soft in green and stopped seven meters away from the cup.
Burns went next and pulled his blow to the left side of the green. The best power in Tour’s best weapon once again released it as he ran with 40 feet Eagle Putt past 10 meters and then lost his return to give Fox a two-point of victory.
“It was difficult,” Fox said after his victory. “I hit some excellent shots down stretching in regulation. I probably had little luck in that stroke in 18 in the regulation, snapped in the left door. To be honest, Sam and I had a little pillow fight there for three holes. It was a very average golf, setting it on average. But it was probably the best I was. It was nice to do it, but hey.
This shot made him a two -time PGA Tour and La Burns winner looking at his reply, thinking about what he left while he goes to Oakmont for 2025 US Open.
