Built For This: TPC Toronto to host RBC Canadian Open in 2025

2025 RBCCO Venue Announcement

Renovated North Course championship layout to challenge the stars of the PGA TOUR for the historic 114th playing of Canada’s National Men’s Open Golf Championship

2025 championship along with spectacular clubhouse and facility enhancements represents the culmination of a longtime dream by the Humeniuk Family to transform TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley into a signature destination for Canadian Golf

May 21, 2024 – Canada’s National Men’s Open Golf Championship is set to write a new exciting chapter as TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley in Caledon, Ont. will host the RBC Canadian Open in 2025.

Golf Canada in partnership with the PGA TOUR announced that the recently renovated 7,445-yard North Course at TPC Toronto will challenge the stars of the PGA TOUR in 2025.

With the announcement, TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley will become the 38th golf course in the 121-year history of the event (and only the eighth since 1977) to host Canada’s National Men’s Open Golf Championship.

“I am extremely proud to see the vision of the Humeniuk Family for TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley become a reality in accepting our invitation to host Canada’s National Open Championship in 2025,” said Golf Canada CEO Laurence Applebaum. “This incredible property with its spectacular clubhouse and facilities will deliver an outstanding and dramatic competition supported by an operational capacity befitting a world-class championship. This is a special and deserving moment for TPC Toronto in stepping onto the global golf stage in hosting the 114th playing of our National Open Championship.”  

In 2023, the Doug Carrick-designed North Course located 40 minutes from Toronto Pearson International Airport, underwent a major golf course renovation under the guidance of renowned architect Ian Andrew with consultation from the PGA TOUR for the venue to host large-scale, global championship level competition.

Renovations to the publicly accessible North Course— ranked 21st among Canadian public courses by SCOREGolf prior to renovation —were focused on transforming the layout into a National Open Championship venue, enhancing the course’s dramatic green complexes and positioning bunkers and other hazards strategically to challenge elite players.

The North Course will play to its new championship par of 70 for the RBC Canadian Open, with holes eight and thirteen converted to par-4s. The 585-yard par-5 18th hole, which saw a new tee deck, a signature tree and short grass runoff area in front of the green introduced as part of the renovation, will play as a dramatic risk-reward final hole.

Collaboration over the past six years with the TPC Network has allowed TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley to gain immersive experience and key understandings from other PGA TOUR venues about custom-tailoring its world-class golf course and facilities for top-level championship competition. 

The announcement to host the 2025 edition of Canada’s National Open Championship represents a culmination of a longtime dream by the Humeniuk family to build an outstanding golf destination at Osprey Valley that could host Canada’s National Open Championships – a longtime vision coming to fruition with a championship venue and world-class facilities built for this signature moment.

“This is a momentous occasion for Osprey Valley and represents a major step in our ongoing transformation as a facility, along with the culmination of many years of hard work, planning and preparation by our team,” said Osprey Valley President Chris Humeniuk. “We have long envisioned that Osprey Valley would become one of Canada’s greatest golf destinations, and becoming the host venue for our country’s national championship is a tremendous component of that vision becoming a reality.”

The new featured amenities at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley – a publicly accessible 54-hole facility – include a 60,000-sqft. modern classic clubhouse overlooking the 18th hole of the renovated North Course. New amenities for TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley – with its three top-ranked golf courses on the property (North / Hoot / Heathlands) – also include the flagship restaurant Two Brothers, VIP Suites and event space, plus a second clubhouse on the Heathlands course and 17 multi-unit cabins for stay-and-play trips currently under construction.

TPC Toronto has hosted high-level professional golf for a number of years including US Open and RBC Canadian Open Qualifiers. Later this season, TPC Toronto will host the 2024 ORORO PGA Women’s Championship of Canada on its Heathlands course, while the North course will host PGA TOUR Americas’ season-ending Fortinet Cup Championship, part of a tradition of hosting PGA TOUR Americas events since 2018 —experiences that that have provided TPC Toronto’s management, turf and hospitality teams with relevant experiences to deliver a premium championship event experience.

In 2022, Osprey Valley and Golf Canada announced a major partnership and bold vision to build a new Home for Canadian Golf on the property of TPC Toronto as Osprey Valley, including Golf Canada’s national headquarters, the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame, national headquarters for First Tee – Canada and a 30,000-sq.ft community accessible 18-hole putting course, expected to be completed in 2025.  

Golf Ontario and the Club Management Association of Canada (CMAC) have committed to having corporate presence at the headquarters, collaborating with Golf Canada to embrace the golf community and develop a dynamic home campus for Canadian golf.

“The Town of Caledon is delighted TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley in Caledon, Ont. will host the RBC Canadian Open in 2025,” said Town of Caledon Mayor Annette Groves. “Caledon is the perfect setting for this national tournament that brings many visitors to Caledon. We are excited people will experience our Town’s beautiful landscapes, local businesses and venues.”

Information about corporate hospitality and volunteer opportunities for 2025 will be announced in the coming weeks.  

The 2024 RBC Canadian Open will take place May 28 to June 2 at the historic Hamilton Golf and Country Club in Ancaster, Ont. Tickets for the 2024 RBC Canadian Open are available here. Children aged 12-and-under get free admission with a ticketed adult.

Amateur Cam Kellett sets course record to win second Ontario Regional Qualifier and exemption into 2024 RBC Canadian Open

Cam Kellett - RBCCO Ontario 2 Qualifier
Cam Kellett - RBC Canadian Open - Second Ontario Regional Qualifier

Springfield, Ont. – Cam Kellett (a) secured his exemption into the 2024 RBC Canadian Open and set a new course record for good measure. Kellett fired a 6-under 64 at Tarandowah Golfers Club in Springfield, Ont. on Thursday to finish atop the leaderboard and with it, a spot in the field at Hamilton Golf and Country Club for the 113th playing of Canada’s National Open Championship.

Kellett of London, Ont. recorded six birdies, three on the front and three on the back and credited his patience along with solid putting and converting on the chances he could on Thursday.

“I made clutch par saves on the front side, birdied 11, hit a poor lag putt on 14 but recovered by making the 10-footer, made birdie on 15. I knew 6-under would be to tough beat so was just happy to post that early,” said Kellett following play.

Leaderboard refreshing and texting with his friends helped pass the time for Kellett, but as play concluded his 6-under round could not be matched and with it a new course record at Tarandowah Golfers Club, which came as surprise.

“That’s sweet, I thought I tied it. It’s obviously really cool. It’s the first course record I’ve held so very excited about that.”

I took advantage of having the good morning draw and having played it 200 or so times before certainly helped. This was where I grew up playing with my dad so it’s special for sure,” added Kellett.

Kellett recently finished his collegiate career at Eastern Michigan University and will be competing at Hamilton Golf and Country Club with the world’s best at the RBC Canadian Open for the first time.

“I’ve struggled with self belief since college, but the last year I’ve really started playing how I know I can play. I’ve been more compassionate with myself, but I work hard for the results.”

Just keep trying to get better in any way I can. The patience in last year has paid off. It’s been tough to come close and not get wins, so this is special. The PGA TOUR start will be unreal,” added an excited Kellett.

In addition to Kellett’s exemption, the top 10 per cent of the 137-player field (18 players total) from the first Ontario Regional Qualifier have advanced to the RBC Canadian Open Final Qualifier on Monday, May 27 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) in Caledon, Ont.

Marc-Olivier Plasse wins Quebec Regional Qualifier to punch his ticket into the 2024 RBC Canadian Open

Blainville, Que. – Marc-Olivier Plasse defeated Clement Lepine (a) in a playoff at the RBC Canadian Open Quebec Regional Qualifier at Club de golf Le Blainviller, in Blainville, Que. on Tuesday to earn a direct exemption into the 2024 RBC Canadian Open, from May 28 – June 2 at Hamilton Golf and Country Club.

Plasse, of Léry, Que. was in a very early morning tee time on Tuesday and after shaking off the disappointment by starting off with a bogey on his first role, Plasse drained a clutch birdie putt on the next hole.

“It was a great day, obviously. I didn’t get off to the best start hitting a shaky tee shot on number one and making bogey there. I struggled off the tee for the first couple of holes, but my putting really kept me together on the front nine, I shot even par on the front nine which was actually a very good score the way I drove the ball. I started driving the ball better on the back nine and kept making some putts so I’m really happy with the round,” said Plasse.

Plasse went on to add three more birdies on 13, 15 and 16 and found himself finishing up 17 and 18 with two pars in order to keep himself in the conversation at the top of the leaderboard. Reigniting his momentum, he then battled his way through playoff against fellow competitor Clement Lepine (a) of Laval, Que., securing a thrilling victory and earning an exemption into the RBC Canadian Open.

“On the playoff hole I was really nervous, easily the most nervous I have ever been. I was able to hit some good shots, some decent shots and make a hard-working par which feels amazing,” added Plasse.

Following Plasse’s win, he now feels a sense of comfort and familiarity, having played Hamilton Golf and Country Club before, giving him a confident advantage to tackle the challenges ahead.

“I was at the RBC Canadian Open the last time it was at Hamilton when my good friend Etienne Brault qualified, it will be pretty surreal to go back there and experience it again myself,” said Plasse.

In addition to Plasse’s exemption, the top 10 per cent of the of the 133-player field (19 players total) have advanced to the RBC Canadian Open Final Qualifier on Monday, May 27 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) in Caledon, Ont.

Amateur Justin Matthews wins first Ontario Regional Qualifier to earn exemption into 2024 RBC Canadian Open

Justin Matthews - RBCCO Ontario 1 Regional Qualifier

Oshawa, Ont. – There is a saying that good things come to those who wait. For Justin Matthews he had to do just that following his early morning tee time. Matthews, competing as an amateur went on to shoot a 6-under 65 on Monday at the first of two Ontario Regional Qualifiers at Oshawa Golf & Curling Club in Oshawa, Ont. and with it a direct exemption into the 2024 RBC Canadian Open.

Matthews of Little Britain, Ont. got off to a firing start with back-to-back birdies to begin his round on the back nine. After carrying a 2-under score through nine, Matthews really took off recording four consecutive birdies from holes one through four, before a bogey ended the streak on five. Matthews finished strong with a birdie on the ninth hole to finish with 65. Matthews credited his ball striking and familiarity with the course for his low round.

“I was a junior member out here (Oshawa Golf & Curling Club) for four years, so I know this place pretty well. Just having confidence in my game because I’ve played Oshawa so many times, really helped today,” said Matthews.

After teeing off in the second group at 7:41 a.m. and finishing just after noon, he then had to wait to see if his score would stand, which he was able to do from home following lunch with his caddie at the course.

“Luckily, I live 40 minutes away so I went back home and chilled out with dog and watched the leaderboard and came back to warm up and it looked like nobody was really going to make a charge, that’s when it finally hit home,” said Matthews after returning to the course.

The 20-year-old Sophomore from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte has now secured his spot in the 2024 RBC Canadian Open at Hamilton Golf and Country Club.

“Definitely has not sunk in and I don’t know how long it will take. I’m super pumped. I will definitely take tomorrow off and get back to work with my coach in preparation. It’s a dream come true and I’m excited to make a start on the PGA TOUR,” added Matthews.

In addition to Matthews’ exemption, the top 10 per cent of the 144-player field (21 players total) from the first Ontario Regional Qualifier have advanced to the RBC Canadian Open Final Qualifier on Monday, May 27 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) in Caledon, Ont.

Pitt Meadows, B.C. – Jake Lane of Vancouver shot a 5-under 67 on Thursday at the B.C. Regional Qualifier hosted by Pitt Meadows Golf Club in Pitt Meadows, B.C. to earn a direct exemption into the 2024 RBC Canadian Open at Hamilton Golf and Country Club.

Lane was among the first to play on Thursday and after bogeying the second hole, he posted back-to-back birdies on holes three and four and a steady string of pars to close the front nine.

“Rolled in a 30-footer on three, that helped because through those first four (holes) you want to be under par at minimum in my head with two par fives. Then honestly hung around for most of the day and nothing super special happened,” said Lane.

He went on to add two more birdies on 10 and 15 and punched his ticket with an eagle on the par 5 18th to win by one stroke over Jordan Brajcich of Everett, Wash.

“I’m at 3-under going to 18 and know I need to make birdie in my head to even be in the conversation for playoff and I couldn’t have played it more perfectly. Hit it 320 with a draw down the middle, 7-iron into the back right pin, hit it to 10 feet.

“I was lucky my playing partner Bryce Barker hit his chip shot that was right behind my mark and gave me a perfect read and then I hit it right in the middle,” added Lane about his strong finish.

Following his eagle, Lane stayed at the course and patiently waited as afternoon scores came in, none of which were able to knock him from top spot and with it, a place at the RBC Canadian Open, which will be his first.

“It’s everything to play the RBC Canadian Open as a Canadian. That’s what every young pro and amateur dreams of. It’s going to be a dream come true,” said Lane.

In addition to Lane’s exemption, the top 10 per cent of the 138-player field, 14th place plus ties (24 players total) from the B.C. Regional Qualifier have advanced to the RBC Canadian Open Final Qualifier on Monday, May 27 at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) in Caledon, Ont.

(May 6, 2024) – Two members of Team Europe’s 2023 Ryder Cup winning side, Tommy Fleetwood and Shane Lowry have confirmed their intention to compete at the Hamilton Golf and Country Club in the 2024 RBC Canadian Open.

Fleetwood will make his third appearance in tournament history after finishing runner-up last year following a thrilling four-hole playoff with eventual champion Nick Taylor at Oakdale Golf and Country Club. Fleetwood is currently ranked no. 11 in the Official World Golf Rankings (OWGR). This season, the Englishman has earned three top-10 and three top-25 finishes in eight events on the PGA TOUR. Fleetwood has won eight international tournaments during his career and has been runner-up five times on the PGA TOUR. Competing in his third Ryder Cup for Team Europe last year, Fleetwood finished with a record of 3-1-0 during Europe’s victory over Team U.S.A.

Lowry will be making his sixth appearance in tournament history; his best finish came in 2019 at Hamilton Golf and Country Club where he finished tied for runner-up with Webb Simpson, behind eventual winner Rory McIlroy. Currently ranked no. 41 in the OWGR, Lowry won his third career PGA TOUR event recently at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans alongside Rory McIlroy. Lowry has also earned three top-10’s and five top-25 finishes in nine events on the PGA TOUR this season. Among his three victories on the PGA TOUR, is his 2019 Open Championship victory at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. It was there that the Irishman won his first major by six strokes over Fleetwood. Lowry has won four international tournaments in his career and finished with a record of 1-1-1 during the 2023 Ryder Cup, his second tournament as a member of Team Europe.
