Meet TPC Toronto, the new home for the RBC Canadian Open - that's not in Toronto
The sprawling 54-hole golf facility in Caledon, about an hour northwest of downtown Toronto, isn't just the 2025 tournament site, it's the de facto new home of the Canadian Open for the foreseeable future. Get the latest from Jon McCarthy straight to your inbox Taylor Pendrith hits his tee shot on the 4th hole during the RBC Canadian Open Pro-Am at TPC Toronto. Getty Images CALEDON, Ont. — The RBC Canadian Open is making its debut at TPC Toronto and there is more riding on it than simply seeing how a new venue works out for the week.

Create Account The sprawling 54-hole golf facility in Caledon, about an hour northwest of downtown Toronto, isn't just the 2025 tournament site, it's the de facto new home of the Canadian Open for the foreseeable future. The tournament still will make stops at great classic parkland courses such as St. George's and Hamilton, but home base for Canada's national open is now TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley. 'We know we're a little bit further away from the city, but we know that, when you get here, we just have this palette to work with that we've never had before,' Golf Canada CEO Laurence Applebaum said. The tournament will be held on the 7,389-yard North Course (formerly known as the Toot), recently renovated to championship standards by Canadian course designer Ian Andrew, and Golf Canada is in the process of building its head office and library right on site.

The greens are really pure, poa annua greens, got some speed to them and I think today is going to be really windy so I expect them to get a little bit quicker, but I'm excited for the week.' No top player in the field has as much experience at TPC Toronto as the Pendrith. 'I've played two Mackenzie Tour events here, had a chance to win on the Mackenzie Tour here, so I feel really comfortable here. Also played numerous rounds here with my friends from home in carts and music,' the Richmond Hill native said. In the midst of a busy week, Rory McIlroy only had a chance to play the front nine before the tournament, teeing it up in the pro-am alongside MLSE boss Keith Pelley. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'I don't know if you can call any course a typical TPC setup, but that's kind of what it's like,' McIlroy said. 'A little bit of room off the tee, the fairways are quite generous, but if you miss them, the rough is pretty penal. The greens are tricky, undulating, really got to hit it into the right sections … There's certainly going to be some birdies, but it's a long course for a par-70.' Tournament director Ryan Paul sees great possibilities for the new venue to create its own unique atmosphere that's different from the tournament's recent history at more urban, private clubs. 'With this property, we squashed a lot of rumours that were coming that this place was going to be too far away … that it wasn't a member club,' Paul said. 'But to have over 2,100 volunteers coming back to us, to have ticket sales that are running neck-in-neck with what happened in Hamilton last year really shows the growth of this tournament. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. In recent years, the tournament has been leaning into a Muskoka chair/cottage vibe with it's 'Summer's Open' branding and that is something golf fans can expect more of with the tournament moving out of the city to a rural area. '(TPC Toronto) has established a vibe and an atmosphere and a culture here that is pervasive, and it's authentically Canadian. It feels different,' he said. 'Because it's a big expanse, it feels a little freer, it's a little more open … It has that vibe. Lots of water, big trees, that really great feeling.' There has been some concern that having a home base for the tournament relatively far from the buzz of Toronto could hinder visitors and players from what has been a very successful decade for the RBC Canadian Open. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Corey Conners said on Wednesday that initial reaction he has heard from fellow players has been very positive. Read More 'The facilities here — great practice facility, great clubhouse, locker room — those are all added bonuses, which I think make the week a little bit easier. Once you're here, you've got everything that you need,' Conners said. '(As for) the proximity to the city, I think it's close enough. Yeah, it's just a special place that a lot of people are going to take notice of. I know a lot of the players have already told me some positive feedback about it. I think everyone's going to like it.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. McIlroy hinted that, although proximity to downtown Toronto was a plus for the tournament, the RBC Canadian Open has put itself in a position to succeed wherever it is played. 'Look, we play so much in the States anyway, and you come here, it feels a little different, but you're not that far away,' he said. 'I think when the tournament has been a little closer to the city and we've been able to stay in Toronto, it feels a little more, I won't say European, but cosmopolitan and may be different from what we do week in, week out. 'But I think for the most part, it's become a very, very good tournament, and I think because of that, and you see guys playing each and every year,' he added. 'I just think this tournament has grown from strength to strength over these last few years, and that's a lot to do with Golf Canada and RBC and everyone behind it, and they should be really proud of what they've built.'

Ascendiant Capital Markets: Society Pass Inc (Nasdaq: SOPA) 1Q 2025 Sees Growth Over the Next Year with 2 IPOs Providing Key Catalysts in 2025
NEW YORK, May 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ascendiant Capital Markets LLC (' Ascendiant ') publishes equity research coverage on Society Pass Inc. (Nasdaq: SOPA) (' SoPa ' or the ' Company '), Southeast Asia's (SEA) next generation, data-driven, loyalty, fintech and e-commerce ecosystem. Click Here (on Society Pass website) or here (on Ascendiant website) to view the full Ascendiant Capital Markets Equity Research Report.

Ascendiant believes that these IPOs will drive significant value to Society Pass's shareholders and will be key catalysts for the company in 2025. Positive high risks versus high rewards: Overall, concerns outweighed by growth prospects and valuation. Society Pass's main products still has long commercialization challenges ahead, but Ascendiant believes the ~billion dollars market potential presents high rewards for the risks. Company trading at cash value: The company's market capitalization is only ~$7 million while it has ~$7 million in cash implying its shares and business are significantly undervalued. Valuation attractive: Ascendiant maintains BUY rating, and raises 12-month price target to $15 from $14, based on a NPV analysis, representing significant upside from the current share price. Ascendiant believes this valuation appropriately balances out the company's high risks with its high growth prospects and large upside opportunities. About Society Pass Inc.

Why BRP Stock Rocketed Nearly 13% Higher Today
Crushing beats on both the top and bottom lines by Bombardier Recreational Products (NASDAQ: DOOO), or BRP, clearly impressed the stock market on Thursday. Buoyed by highly encouraging results from the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the shares enjoyed a gain of nearly 13% across the day's trading session. That percentage was also well higher than the 0.3% gain recorded by the S&P 500 index. Far outpacing analyst estimates BRP, a Canada-based company that specializes in vehicles such as snowmobiles and personal sea craft, published those quarterly figures before market open. These revealed that the company booked revenue of just under 1.85 billion Canadian dollars ($1.34 billion), which was down by almost 8% on a year-over-year basis. However, it easily topped the CA$1.23 billion ($893 million) analyst consensus. Non- IFRS net income also declined, falling to just under CA$35 million ($25 million) from the year-ago profit of almost CA$121 million ($88 million). On a per-share basis, the former shook out to CA$0.47 ($0.34) per share. Again, though, this was significantly better than pundits had been expecting, as their collective estimate was merely CA$0.29 ($0.21) per share. In its earnings release, BRP gave itself a pat on the back for its better-than-anticipated performance in light of recent macroeconomic uncertainty. It attributed this largely to brisk end-of-season sales in the snowmobile segment. Guarded about guidance That macroeconomic uncertainty, however, is keeping management from providing guidance for future periods. That said, CEO Jose Boisjoli commented in a press release that "although demand remains soft due to a challenging macro environment, our strong product portfolio and leaner inventory levels position us favorably for a rebound."
