OAKVILLE, Ont. (January 23, 2025) – Golf Canada, in partnership with RBC is pleased to announce that world no.3 Rory McIlroy, a two-time RBC Canadian Open champion, is confirmed to compete in the 114th playing of Canada’s National Open Championship at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) in Caledon, Ont., June 4-8.

“We’re thrilled that one of the best golfers in the world and a two-time champion of the RBC Canadian Open will be making his return. Rory brings the opportunity for Canadian fans to see the highest caliber of talent right on our home soil,” said Mary DePaoli, EVP & Chief Marketing Officer, RBC. “We’re looking forward to the 2025 RBC Canadian Open and hosting the tournament for the first time at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley.”

McIlroy, a 26-time winner on the PGA TOUR and three-time FedEx Cup champion, won his first of two RBC Canadian Open titles in convincing fashion at the Hamilton Golf and Country Club in 2019. He would go on to successfully defend his title in 2022 at St. George’s Golf and Country Club. McIlroy will be in hunt for his third RBC Canadian Open title, looking to join three-time champions Tommy Armour, Sam Snead and Lee Trevino.

The three-time major winner earned a T4 finish last year in Hamilton following a final-round charge and finished T9 at the 2023 RBC Canadian Open at Oakdale Golf and Country Club. McIlroy has also earned 11 international wins, represented Europe at seven Ryder Cups and has competed in two Olympic Games during his career.

“We are very pleased to confirm that two-time RBC Canadian Open champion Rory McIlroy will be returning to Canada to compete this year at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley. Rory is among the top golfers in the world and Canadian golf fans have been extremely supportive of him during tournament week,” said Ryan Paul, Tournament Director, RBC Canadian Open. “We are happy to have Rory join our Canadian PGA TOUR stars including 2023 champion, Nick Taylor, as our field begins to take shape ahead of the 114th playing of our National Open Championship.”

In addition, Golf Canada announced today that the full selection of ticket options is now available for both of Canada’s National Open Championships – the 2025 RBC Canadian Open and 2025 CPKC Women’s Open.

The 2025 RBC Canadian Open will be conducted for the first time ever at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) in Caledon, Ont., from June 4-8. TPC Toronto is quickly becoming one of the premier Canadian golf destinations, with all three courses ranked inside the Top 100 by SCOREGolf Magazine.

Canadian favourites Corey Conners, Mackenzie Hughes, Taylor Pendrith, Adam Hadwin and 2023 RBC Canadian Open champion Nick Taylor will compete for Canada’s National Open Championship. The Canadian contingent will challenge the defending champion from Scotland, Robert MacIntyre, who finished at 16-under to win at Hamilton Golf and Country Club in Hamilton, Ont. and earn the Scotsman’s his first PGA TOUR victory. The official charitable beneficiary of the RBC Canadian Open is First Tee – Canada.

The RBC Canadian Open earned the PGA TOUR’s 2024 Best Marketing Initiative for the reimagined tournament logo, highlighting Nick Taylor’s putter toss during the Tour’s season-ending meetings in Orlando, Fla. last month. The revised brand identity for Canada’s National Men’s Open Championship originally rolled out in 2024 as a one-year tribute to Taylor’s iconic 72-foot winning putt on the fourth playoff hole to defeat Tommy Fleetwood has since been made the permanent tournament mark.

The 2025 CPKC Women’s Open will take place at the historic Mississaugua Golf and Country Club in Mississauga, Ont., August 20-24. The historic venue is one of only 17 golf clubs in Canada to have hosted both the Men’s and Women’s National Open Championships. The CPKC Women’s Open is one of the top women’s sporting events in Canada and won back-to-back LPGA Tournament of the Year honours in 2022 and 2023.

The Brooke Brigade will be out in full force as 2018 CPKC Women’s Open champion Brooke Henderson will headline a field of the world’s best in Mississauga alongside fellow Canadian LPGA Tour player Alena Sharp, Maude Aimee Leblanc and Savanah Grewal. Defending champion Lauren Coughlin earned her first LPGA Tour win in 2024 at the Earl Grey Golf Club in Calgary, Alta., an event that set an all-time attendance record for the tournament.

The 2024 CPKC Women’s Open was recently named the Gold Driver Award recipient for Best Volunteer Appreciation at the LPGA’s annual Gold Driver Awards. The CPKC Women’s Open has earned Tournament of the Year honours the previous two years (2022 and 2023). Golf Canada and CPKC also received Gold Driver Awards for Best Volunteer Engagement in 2023, Best Sponsor Activation in 2019, 2022, and 2023 as well as Best Community and Charity Engagement in three of the last five full season campaigns.

Through its CPKC Has Heart campaign, CPKC once again will be making a significant charitable contribution to the host region. Since 2014, the CPKC Women’s Open has helped raise over $22 million in support of children’s heart health in North America. A host community beneficiary of the 2025 CPKC Women’s Open will be named by CPKC and Golf Canada in the coming weeks.

Along with world class golf, fans can belt out their best rendition of “O’ Canada” and experience the thrills of the iconic “Rink Hole” as well as enjoying premium food and beverage options in The Fare Way at both national open championships. As part of the commitment to junior golf, admission all week is free for youth aged 12-and-under at both tournaments.
