The 2024 RBC Canadian Open is here, and as a golf fan, you are requested not to miss it. Commencing from May 30th to June 2nd, the event will be held at the Hamilton Golf & Country Club, Ontario. The golf course, which was designed by the renowned architect Harry Colt back in 1894, underwent a massive renovation in 2019 to suit the needs of the present golfers. But it has also brought back several of Colt’s designs that were lost over the years. Given such an exciting setting, don’t you want to see magic happen on the course again?

Even if you don’t have tickets for the 2024 RBC Canadian Open, you will not be disappointed. The Canadian Open is returning yet again to the same golf course where Rory McIlroy was deemed victorious in 2019. And for the next two years, the event was shut down as per COVID protocols. With this unmissable event coming right up, here is how you might watch it from the comfort of your home with your favorite snack and drink.

Can both US and UK viewers watch the event?

Do you know that last year’s Canada Open came out of a 69-year-old drought? Let us dive into why you should be hyped about this season’s Canada Open.

Would Rory McIlroy win against the Canadian golfers’ goal?

Crazy as it might be before Nick Taylor won last year’s Canada Open, it was only in 1954 that another Canadian won the title. And now, if the 2024 RBC Canadian Open is claimed by another Canadian, it would just be stunning! The 2024 CJ CUP Byron Nelson winner, Taylor Pendrith, along with Corey Conners and Mackenzie Hughes, are already eyeing the trophy. Do you think they would be able to win their country another trophy? It remains to be seen!

To answer that question, one should not rule out the immense possibility of Rory McIlroy’s precision at winning the Canada Opens. After his 2019 win at the same golf course, he won again in 2022, when the event came out of its two-year-long retirement owing to COVID-19. This season, McIlroy is again in flawless form after winning the Zurich Classic and the Wells Fargo Championship. He might just win this event too!

Would you want to keep your faith in McIlroy for this upcoming event, or would you rather cheer for the Canadians to win the trophy? Let us know in the comments below.
