After a two-year hiatus because of COVID-19, the RBC Canadian Open is back, and many of golf’s marquee names will head north of the border in a final tune-up before the U.S. Open.
According to PointsBet, the most recent major winners, Scottie Scheffler (+850) and Justin Thomas (+900), are the betting favorites to come away with the victory at St. George’s Golf and Country Club.
The Canadian Open’s last winner, Rory McIlroy, is +950. McIlroy is fresh off a T-18 at the Memorial. However, in his previous three starts, he had two top-5s and a solo-eighth.
World No. 4 Cam Smith has the next lowest odds, at +1200. Sam Burns follows Smith, at +1400, two weeks after he claimed his third Tour win of the season at the Charles Schwab Challenge, where he bested Scheffler in a playoff.
