The 2025 RBC Canadian Open wrapped up with thrilling performances and a dramatic finish at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley. As one of the longest-running tournaments on the PGA Tour calendar, the event once again delivered not only on excitement but also on financial rewards. With a strong field that included Rory McIlroy, Tom Kim, and defending champion Robert MacIntyre, fans witnessed elite-level golf from start to finish.
This year’s total purse was set at $9.8 million, marking a $400,000 increase from 2024. The winner of the event, Robert MacIntyre, earned a handsome $1.764 million, up from the $1.694 million he secured in his victory last year. As always, the distribution of prize money reflected the razor-thin margins at the top level of professional golf, where a single stroke can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars in difference.
Beyond the prize money, the RBC Canadian Open carries added significance in the PGA Tour schedule. It awards 500 FedExCup points and a two-year Tour exemption to the winner-making it a key target for players preparing for the stretch of summer majors, including the U.S. Open. For many, a strong showing in Canada can be a springboard into major contention and even Ryder Cup selection discussions.
