RBC Canadian Open 2026 Field: Fitzpatrick, Rose, Morikawa Headline

11 days ago
The 2026 RBC Canadian Open field is set, and four of the world’s top 10 players are headed to TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley next week. Matt Fitzpatrick, Justin Rose, Collin Morikawa, and Tommy Fleetwood lead the marquee names for the June 11 to 14 event in Caledon, Ontario, where a $9.8 million purse is on the line. Golf Canada and RBC announced the final field on Friday.
This is the strongest top of a Canadian Open field in years, and it gives bettors and DFS players a deep board to work with the week before the U.S. Open. Here is who is in, who is worth watching, and how the field shapes the betting and DFS picture.
Who headlines the 2026 RBC Canadian Open field
The headline group is built around four players from the top 10 of the Official World Golf Ranking: Matt Fitzpatrick, Justin Rose, Collin Morikawa and Tommy Fleetwood. That quartet anchors a field that also brings major champions and recent winners north of the border.
Beyond the top four, the field includes five-time major winner Brooks Koepka, 2026 PGA Championship winner Aaron Rai, Shane Lowry, Tony Finau, Sam Burns, Wyndham Clark, Max Homa and Sahith Theegala. Defending champion Ryan Fox returns to chase back-to-back titles, and 2024 winner Robert MacIntyre is also in the field. You can see how several of these names set up in our look at Matt Fitzpatrick‘s recent form and DFS outlook.
Two injury questions to watch before you bet
Before locking in any Canadian Open bets, watch two health situations closely. Collin Morikawa is listed in the field, but he withdrew from this week’s Memorial Tournament with a back injury, so his status for TPC Toronto is worth monitoring. Viktor Hovland is also in the field after he pulled out of the Memorial this week for an undisclosed reason.
Both players are talented enough to move odds when they commit or scratch, so check the official tee sheet before you fire.
The Canadian contingent at TPC Toronto
The home crowd will have plenty to cheer. The Canadian group is led by 2023 RBC Canadian Open champion Nick Taylor and includes PGA Tour winners Corey Conners, Taylor Pendrith, Mackenzie Hughes, Adam Hadwin and Adam Svensson. Canadian golf icon Mike Weir is also in the field. We broke down the home exemptions in our piece on Mike Weir and the Canadians who earned spots.
Corey Conners and Taylor Pendrith are the most interesting Canadians from a betting angle. Both are ball-strikers who fit a TPC Toronto setup that rewards approach play, and both will carry extra motivation in front of a home gallery.
Betting and DFS angles for the 2026 RBC Canadian Open
With four top-10 players in a $9.8 million event, the outright board should price the stars near the top while leaving value in the chase pack. Fitzpatrick and Morikawa are elite iron players, which travels well to a course that asks for precise approach play. Fleetwood remains one of the best players in the world, and a softer field than a major gives him a real path.
For DFS, the build is about deciding how much of your salary to spend on the four headliners versus loading up on mid-tier ball-strikers and the motivated Canadians. The smart move is to weigh the strokes gained categories that match the course profile rather than chasing names. Approach play and around-the-green scrambling tend to separate contenders at Osprey Valley.

What it means for the week ahead
The Canadian Open lands in a busy stretch, sitting one week before the U.S. Open. Several players in this field will use TPC Toronto as a final tune-up, which can cut both ways for bettors. Some arrive sharp and ready to win, while others are managing their workload and saving their best for the major. Reading which is where an edge lives.
Track the commitments and any late withdrawals through the weekend, especially around Morikawa and Hovland, and let the final field guide your card.
