RBC Canadian Open betting favorites
Rory McIlroy is back in action this week for the first time since the PGA Championship. And World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is taking a much-deserved break after winning the Memorial for his third victory in four starts.
All of that is to say that heading into the RBC Canadian Open, McIlroy is a huge betting favorite. The Masters champion and career Grand Slam winner comes into the week with +450 odds-to-win. McIlroy already has three PGA Tour wins on the season.
Rory McIlroy’s absence from the Memorial Tournament has sparked debate, with some critics questioning his commitment. As he prioritizes national championships and global growth of golf, McIlroy’s evolving career strategy may redefine his legacy in the sport.
Behind McIlroy is young phenom Ludvig Aberg at +1400. Canadian pro and two-time PGA Tour winner Corey Conners comes in third in pre-tournament odds at +2000 for his home-country event.
Fellow Canadian Taylor Pendrith is in fifth at +2500, while former Open champion Shane Lowry is sandwiched between them at +2200.
