Table of Contents
It’s not just the silverware at stake this Sunday in Caledon—millions are on the line at the 2025 RBC Canadian Open, and the PGA Tour’s finest are leaving it all on the greens at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley.
With a total prize purse of $9.8 million, the stakes have never been higher for Canada’s flagship golf event. The eventual winner will walk away with a massive $1.764 million, underscoring the tournament’s rise in stature on the PGA calendar. The runner-up will also earn a cool $1.068 million, while the third-place finisher will take home $676,200—a reward that most professionals on Tour would gladly bank.
Familiar turf, elevated stakes
Held at the picturesque TPC Toronto, this year’s edition has attracted a robust international field. And while Canadian fans are yearning for a homegrown triumph—the last of which came via Nick Taylor’s iconic win in 2023—it’s the familiar elite faces who’ve surged into contention through three days of tense stroke play.
Players like Rory McIlroy, who has previously dominated in Canada, were among the early headliners, while younger stars like Sahith Theegala and Ludvig Åberg are also sniffing around the top of the leaderboard, chasing not just glory but a lucrative payday.
Prize money structure: Riches spread deep
The RBC Canadian Open isn’t just rewarding the winner generously. Those finishing in the top 10 will each earn upwards of $267,000, and even a 30th-place finish guarantees $67,130—a clear sign of the event’s financial gravitas. Here’s a look at the breakdown:
- 1st: $1,764,000
- 2nd: $1,068,200
- 3rd: $676,200
- 4th: $480,200
- 5th: $401,800
- 6th–10th: Between $267,050 and $355,250
- 20th–22nd: $129,850
- 30th: $67,130
This financial structure reflects the Tour’s broader effort to spread the wealth more equitably while maintaining jaw-dropping incentives for podium finishers.
History on the horizon?
No Canadian has repeated Taylor’s 2023 feat since, but a strong showing from Adam Svensson and Corey Conners this week has kept local hopes alive. Meanwhile, defending champion Tyrrell Hatton struggled to find consistency, fading early in the tournament despite being one of the pre-event favourites.
As the sun sets on Osprey Valley, the storylines are stacking: can a new champion etch their name in history—and do so with a $1.76 million cheque in hand? Or will a familiar face reclaim Canadian turf?
One thing’s certain: this year’s RBC Canadian Open is as rich in drama as it is in dollars.
