McCARTHY: Did RBC Canadian Open's new venue make the grade?
Party, beer, hockey and some golf — breaking down the latest installment of our national event Get the latest from Jon McCarthy straight to your inbox Canadian Nick Taylor on the 14th hole, 'the rink' during the RBC Canadian Open Golf Pro Am in Alton, Ont., Wednesday, June 4, 2025. Photo by Peter Power / THE CANADIAN PRESS CALEDON, Ont. — A fan with fake abs shaved into his hairy beer belly is flexing for mobile phones as the masses prepare for another well-lubricated rendition of our national anthem. The rowdiest of the Saturday afternoon crowd at TPC Toronto hang and bang on the makeshift hockey boards. The well-heeled are also in the vicinity, but kept safely above the fray in cozy corporate suites. CBS stars Amanda Balionis and Colt Knost are minutes from charging onto the tee in duelling Toronto Maple Leafs and Florida Panthers hockey sweaters. Social media teams buzz about, trying to decide which part of the intentional chaos to point their cameras. In the middle of it all, Mackenzie Hughes and caddie Julien Trudeau stand on the tee box having a conversation about the wind. Welcome to the RBC Canadian Open. More specifically, welcome to the Rink Hole. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below.

I can feel that pride out there for us and just for people being Canadian,' Hughes said after firing his way into contention during Saturday's third round. 'Yeah, really enjoying it. Like I said, the support's been phenomenal.' The rink hole, now in its seventh iteration, has become a microcosm of the RBC Canadian Open, and of modern professional sports as a whole. In a media and entertainment world fighting for the next viral moment, big events are spending plenty of time, money, and brain power on figuring out how to put all the ingredients together to create perfect bite-sized content that will find its way into your algorithm.

'We're not just a golf tournament, we're a sports and entertainment property,' tournament director Ryan Paul said. 'I know we continue to try to build on the Canadiana of this event and where we can add to that.' In a sea of sameness on the PGA Tour schedule, the RBC Canadian Open is showcasing its differences. We might secretly cringe at listening to the 10th off-key version of O Canada belted out at the Rink Hole or at seeing Mounties used as models for a world audience, but the shame of selling out was strictly a 90s thing. When getting noticed is the end game, it's simply called leaning into your strengths. A marshall on the 14th 'rink hole' wearing a referees jersey during the RBC Canadian Open Golf Pro Am in Alton, Ont., Wednesday, June 4, 2025. PETER POWER/THE CANADIAN PRESS Looking around TPC Toronto this week, all you see is lots of people having fun, some watching golf, some not. And if you ask around the PGA Tour, the tournament has developed a reputation, both for its vibe, and for punching above its weight as a tournament and a product. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'It's become a very, very good tournament,' two-time champion Rory McIlroy said before missing the cut for the first time in five appearances. 'I think because of that, and you see guys playing each and every year, I think the field then starts to become stronger because you see your peers do something, and we're all like sort of sheep out here. Once one person does something, we all sort of try to do the same thing.' None of this would be possible without a compelling tournament and world-class competition on the golf course. And McIlroy has done a lot of the heavy lifting to deliver on both of those items. The superstar golfer hasn't been shy about his appreciation for national opens, and his strong relationship with RBC has guaranteed the Canadian Open retains a very healthy status as long as it can retain the Northern Irishman. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. All this recent success has given Golf Canada the positive energy and upward trajectory it needed to make the rather ambitious move to rural Caledon and TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley for the first time in 2025. With Golf Canada in the midst of moving its headquarters to this new venue 75 km northwest of downtown Toronto, it's no secret that TPC's North Course (one of three at the sprawling three course facility) will be the de facto home for the tournament for at least a generation of golfers. There will still be trips to classic private golf clubs such as St. George's and Hamilton, but with each of those courses only willing to open their gates to the tournament every five years or so, expect plenty of stops here in Caledon. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. There was always to be some bumps in the road this week, perhaps even literal ones as upwards of 80,000 people over the course of the week attempted to make their way from GTA cities to rural Caledon. Wednesday night's storm only exacerbated parking issues as grass lots turned to mud, even causing lot closures during Thursday's opening round. The tournament's social media team spent much of the early rounds apologizing to ticketholders who made their voices heard loudly on social media. There will undoubtedly be some changes and logistical improvements made based on what is learned this week, but the tournament's future at TPC Toronto is now a reality. On the links, the ability of the North Course to stand up to PGA Tour competition will remain something of a mystery after the greens were never able to dry out over the four days, allowing players to stay in attack mode and possibly causing some problems with putting speeds. A tricky breeze on Friday gave some hope that the course could show some teeth down the road. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'I thought the greens were maybe a little bit on the slower side than we normally face, and they never really firmed up over the week,' Adam Hadwin said on Sunday. 'But the fairways started to roll out and made hitting some of the fairways a little bit more difficult. The angles had to be spot on. Yeah, rough was up. I thought it provided a good test.' In the end, it once again wasn't to be the week for Hughes, who will no doubt be back in Caledon next year to try to live out his childhood dream of winning his national Open. 'I just do the best I can to control what I can control, and whatever happens happens,' Hughes said. Good advice, and all you can do, whether playing in a tournament or organizing one.

McIntosh sets Canadian record in 800M freestyle
VICTORIA – Two Canadian Olympic medallists went head-to-head in a nail-biting 100-metre butterfly race, while Summer McIntosh of Toronto set a Canadian record in the 800-metre freestyle on Sunday at the Bell Canadian Swimming Trials in Victoria. Ilya Kharun of Montreal and Josh Liendo of Toronto squared off in the same race that saw them share a podium at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Kharun won in a personal best time of 50.37 seconds, touching the wall .09 ahead of Liendo. Both were well under the AQUA A qualifying time of 51.77 for this summer's world championships in Singapore. The 20-year-old Kharun was happy with the win but sees room for improvement. 'There's definitely some tweaks I can improve on,' said Kharun. 'I know it's not perfect yet. There's some things we've got to work on.' Liendo took silver in Paris, and Kharun the bronze. It was the first time two Canadian men stood on the Olympic podium together and first double podium for Swimming Canada since 1976 (Cheryl Gibson, Becky Smith — silver and bronze 400IM). McIntosh had a sellout crowd on its feet at Saanich Commonwealth Place cheering as she swam the 800 metres in 8:05.07. That shaved almost five seconds off her own Canadian record and was the third-fastest time ever, 0.95 of a second off the world record American legend Katie Ledecky set in May. 'I'm always hoping to break records and push the boundaries of sport,' said the 18-year-old, who set a world record in the 400-metre freestyle on Saturday's opening night. 'I'm always trying to be faster and faster. That just gives me more fuel to the fire.' Para swimmer Nicholas Bennett won his second event of the trials. The S14 swimmer with the Red Deer Catalina Swim Club won the men's 200-m multi-class freestyle event in 1:54.44. He earned a silver medal in the same race at the Paris 2024 Paralympics. 'It was really good,' said the 21-year-old from nearby Parksville, B.C., who won the men's 100-m multi-class breaststroke Saturday. 'We're right where we want to be.' Kylie Masse of Lasalle, Ont., also picked up her second victory of the meet by winning the 50-m backstroke in 27.24 seconds. Ingrid Wilm of the High Performance Centre-Vancouver celebrated her 27th birthday by finishing second in 27.58. Both swimmers were under the AQUA A qualifying time of 28.22. 'I've been enjoying doing it and putting a little more focus on it this year,' Masse said about the sprint race, in which she was the 2022 world champion. 'Every little detail counts, trying to execute it perfectly. It's really fast and really hard.' Earning a spot on the world championships team helped Wilm shake off the disappointment of finishing third in the 100-back Saturday night. That meant she didn't qualify for the event for the upcoming world championships after reaching the finals at the Paris Olympics. 'I was frustrated after (Saturday) night,' said the Calgary native. 'It's to my chagrin we have such a deep field here in Canada. I relied a lot on my teammates and my coaching staff and it just once again showed me just how many people have my back.' It was a bittersweet victory for Blake Tierney in the men's 50-m backstroke. The Saskatoon native who trains at the High Performance Centre-Vancouver won the race in personal best time of 25.23 seconds. That was over the AQUA A qualifying time of 25.11 but under Swimming Canada's secondary standard of 25.36. 'A lot of work needs to be done,' said Tierney, who has been dealing with an ankle issue. 'I couldn't do a lot of kicking, so that kind of messed with the confidence. I'm just doing the best I can. I'm really thankful I made the team.' Two-time Olympian Mary-Sophie Harvey of Trois-Rivières, Que., also won her second race of the meet but wasn't happy with her time. Harvey, who trains with Montreal's CAMO club, won the 100-m butterfly in 58.37 seconds, over the AQUA A qualifying time of 58.33 but under Swimming Canada's secondary time of 59.91. 'I'm going to be honest,' said Harvey, who won the 200 breaststroke Saturday. 'It was good practice for my individual medley.' Montreal's Eric Brown won the 1,500-m freestyle in 15:17.54. That was over both the AQUA A time of 15:01.89 and the Swimming Canada secondary standard of 15:10.91. In other Para swimming events, Reid Maxwell, an S8 Para swimmer from the Edmonton Keyano Swim Club, won the multi-class 400-m freestyle in 4:26.66. It was the same event in which the 17-year-old won a silver medal at the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games in Canadian record time. 'It was a little slower than I wanted but I can't complain,' said Maxwell. 'I gave it everything I had.' Mary Jibb, an S9 swimmer from the Pacific Sea Wolves won the multi-class 400-m freestyle in 4:52.69. Emma Van Dyk, an S14 swimmer from the Brock Niagara Aquatics, was first in the women's 200-m multi-class freestyle in 2:23.78. Aly van Wyck-Smart, an S3 swimmer from Whitby Swimming, finished second in a Canadian record time of 4:48.05. During the morning heats S4 swimmer Jordan Tucker of Royal City Aquatics set a Canadian record of 4:03.87 in the S4 category. 'I'm blown away,' said Tucker. 'I'm very surprised but very hopeful I can keep breaking records.' This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 8, 2025.

Edmonton Elks drop season opener 34-14 to B.C. Lions
VANCOUVER — Nathan Rourke reminded football fans why he's one of the CFL's top talents on Saturday. Article content The 27-year-old Canadian quarterback threw for 324 yards with three touchdowns, and rushed for another 54 yards as his B.C. Lions opened the season with a 31-14 win over the Edmonton Elks. Article content Article content 'I think at the end of the day, what was the coolest for me was that, despite not playing our best in the first half at times, we rallied,' said Rourke, who went 27 for 36 on his passing attempts. Article content Article content 'We didn't point fingers, we didn't keep our heads down like it felt like we did a lot of time last year. We just rallied and we stuck together.'

The Canadian receiver fumbled the ball, then stared at his gloves in apparent disbelief. Article content By halftime, the Lions were behind 7-3. Article content Inside the B.C. locker room, head coach Buck Pierce had a simple message for his team. Article content Article content 'Just be us. Continue to finish,' he said. 'We were doing some things that were kind of self-inflicted. And the guys understood that we needed to ramp up our details and just focus on finishing plays, finishing drives. But I was proud of the effort.' Article content The Lions came alive early in the second half, stringing together a possession that ended with Rourke escaping the pocket, taking a few steps and sailing a 34-yard pass to Stanley Berryhill III in the end zone. Veteran Kicker Whyte made the convert and the Lions jumped out to a 10-7 advantage. Article content Edmonton had an opportunity to level the score minutes later when Vincent Blanchard lined up for a 45-yard field goal, but his kick went wide.
