The RBC Canadian Open is commencing from May 30th to June 2nd at the Hamilton Golf & Country Club in Ontario, Canada. Although the 106th edition of the PGA Championship had a warning about a weather-beaten event throughout, the golfers and fans at the Hamilton Golf & Country Club this week might have a different weather forecast.

To understand how the week has been going and what fans might expect during the upcoming event, let us explore the weather predictions ahead.

A rain-less RBC Canadian Open?

The start of this week began with light rain and fog on Monday, May 27th, from midnight until midday, while the humidity also peaked at 97%. However, the very next day, the golf course at Hamilton saw thunderstorms and fog but no traces of rain. With broken clouds and a 22% precipitation, today’s forecast is not concerning for the eager fans of the Canadian Open. The first round, this Thursday, would begin with broken clouds across the sky throughout the day, yet the UV rays would be hitting as high as 8 in the day. While the wind is predicted to blow at 13 km/h,.

Compared to the first round, the second round on Friday, May 31st, would be much more comfortable for the golfers.

The wind will be blowing at 11 km/h, and the humidity will be maintained at 42%.

Saturday, on the other hand, is predicted to have winds blowing at 13 km/h with 75% cloud coverage in the morning. Along with the highest temperature of 21 °C, the humidity will be about 51%. But Saturday night is when things will change. There could be some on-and-off rain and drizzle. At the moment, the probability of precipitation is 61%, and golf fans might wake up to a wet golf course for the final round of the 2024 RBC Candian Open.

Yet, unlike the night before, no forecast of rain is predicted for Sunday, June 2nd. With a moderate UV index of 5 and the highest temperature at 24 °C, Hamilton Golf and Country Club would be seeing wind blowing ENE at 13 km/h. The humidity, too, will be moderate at 59%.

Golf fans can thus sit back and relax while enjoying their Canadian Open at the Hamilton Golf Club, which has such an amazing topography and an interesting origin. Well, don’t you want to know how the renovated golf course looks?

Colt’s Hamilton is renovated to bring back a touch of the past.

According to the official PGA Tour, it was “a month before McIlroy’s seven-shot triumph” when Hamilton Golf & Country decided to undergo an improvement plan project in 2019. However, it was soon disturbed as per the COVID-19 protocols; during this time, drone technology was used to continue with the plan. With its distinguishing topography, the new golf course transformed its tees, bunkers, and greens on all 27 holes. The PGA Tour also reported, “There would also be a new irrigation system, practice putting green, and a new practice area.”

To pay respect to the golf architect Harry Colt’s design from more than a century ago, back in 1916, the new plan used all the available designs. Another addition was also brought up. According to the famous architect Martin Ebert, “The club’s original set of 1914 drawings from Colt included ragged edges, additional depth, and “fescue eyebrows” near the bunkers, which players will see once again.”
