2023 RBC Canadian Open preview

The Canadian Open is a grand tournament, and the field is pretty decent with Rory McIlroy headlining. A lot of the European guys are here this week, which makes for a unique spin on it.

2023 RBC Canadian Open rankings: Top 10 expert picks

1. Rory McIlroy: McIlroy might be figuring out some things, but his wedge game was just atrocious on Sunday at Muirfield Village.

2. Justin Rose: I really like where Rose's game is, and he's fresh after taking a week off following Colonial.

3. Corey Conners: The long skid for Canadians in their national championship will eventually come to an end, and Conners could be the guy to do it.

4. Tyrrell Hatton: There's no way I'm betting Hatton this week at his price, but he's a great fantasy pick.

5. Tommy Fleetwood: Fleetwood has never won in the United States, and he might find hismelf a loophole on the PGA Tour win by doing it in Canada.

6. Shane Lowry: Lowry has been in the top 16 in his last two, major-like starts, which may portend better for next week in Los Angeles.

7. Matt Fitzpatrick: Fitzpatrick has been erratic this spring, with a win and a good finish last week, as well as some clunkers.

8. Sahith Theegala: Theegala has been piling up money on the PGA Tour, though he's had three middling finishes in a row.

9. Sam Burns: Burns burnt me on a missed-cut bet this week, proving he is more than adept enough to learn about a venue. Consider me impressed.

10. Cameron Young: Something isn't right with Cam Young's game at the moment, so maybe he can find it this week.
