The RBC Canadian Open is Canada's premier men's professional golf championship, showcasing world-class talent and celebrating the nation's rich golf heritage.
The 115th RBC Canadian Open closed in full Sunday weather at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley, where the final round brought low-60s temperatures, steady rain, split tees, threesomes, and preferred lies. The weather was rough, but the championship never stopped, and the Canadian galleries stayed packed from the early tee times through the winning putt.
CaddyBytes ⛳ 2026 RBC Canadian Open Final Round Recap: Sunday started with chaos at the top. Jimmy Stanger opened like a player trying to steal the trophy before the leaders could settle in, rolling in birdies at the 2nd and 3rd, then stuffing one at the 4th and converting again to begin birdie-birdie-birdie-birdie. The broadcast noted he had made roughly 90 feet of putts across his first three holes, and that opening run briefly gave him the lead outright.
Bud Cauley answered immediately and never looked uncomfortable in the rain. A birdie at the 1st put him into the Sunday fight, and his back nine became the separating stretch. Cauley kept finding the right windows, making key birdies through the middle of the inward nine and turning what had been a crowded chase into a controlled closing march toward his first PGA TOUR victory.
The Canadian energy stayed loud all day. Matthew Anderson, one of a record 10 Canadians to make the cut, charged early and nearly produced a tournament-shaking moment with a close call from the tee. Sudarshan Yellamaraju, born in India and raised for part of his life near the Toronto-area golf scene, had family, friends, and fans following him as he pushed to 12-under before finishing inside the top 10.
The chase kept changing around Cauley. Jackson Suber, the 54-hole leader, bounced back with a birdie at the 10th but could not keep the same pace coming home. Jesper Svensson stayed dangerous with another steady putting day, Viktor Hovland made the birdies he needed to climb into solo third, and defending champion Ryan Fox briefly looked capable of another Canadian Open push before settling into the top-10 group.
The late charge came from Matt Fitzpatrick. He played one of the cleanest final rounds on the board, surged to 15-under, and cut the margin with an eagle at the 18th. That forced Cauley to finish the job under real pressure, but Cauley had already built enough cushion with his Sunday 65. When the last putt dropped, the long wait was over: Bud Cauley won the 2026 RBC Canadian Open at 17-under, two shots clear of Fitzpatrick.
Final scoreboard from screenshot: Bud Cauley wins at 17-under after rounds of 69-63-66-65 for a 263 total. Matt Fitzpatrick finishes second at 15-under, Viktor Hovland takes solo third at 14-under, and four players share fourth at 13-under.

Winning number: Cauley closed with 65 in wet final-round conditions to reach 17-under. Fitzpatrick posted the low number among the top finishers with a final-round 64, while Hovland's Sunday 65 moved him into solo third.
Canadian finish: Yellamaraju finished as the top Canadian shown on the board at 12-under, with Anderson one shot behind at 11-under. The home-country presence was one of the week’s biggest storylines, with a record 10 Canadians making the cut.
Final-round takeaway: This Sunday had every piece of a national-open finish: bad weather, crowded early pressure, a home-country roar, a 54-hole leader trying to hang on, and a veteran winner finally breaking through. Stanger's early four-birdie run changed the tone, Fitzpatrick's closing 64 made the finish tighter, and Hovland climbed hard, but Cauley's back-nine control was the difference.
Championship summary: The 2026 RBC Canadian Open belonged to Bud Cauley, who turned a rainy Sunday into the first PGA TOUR win of his career. His rounds of 69-63-66-65 were good for 263, and his final-round 65 held off Fitzpatrick, Hovland, and the group tied at fourth. TPC Toronto gave the field chances all week, but on Sunday Cauley was the player who handled the rain, the leaderboard, and the pressure best.
