Erik van Rooyen was up-and-down from tournament to tournament. Now, the South African golfer seems to go day-to-day. At the Charles Schwab Challenge, van Rooyen alternated disastrous rounds with excellent ones (75-64-74-65). At the end, it was enough to make the cut and finish T-36. However, it was an adventure that bettors and DFS players almost expected. Consistency has been there in a few weekends like at The CJ CUP Byron Nelson where van Rooyen finished second. Also, there was the Cognizant Classic at the Palm Beaches where he ended up T-9. Too many times, van Rooyen ends up all over the place. Scrambling and sand saves are a reason why where the golfer ranks outside the Top 170 in both. Finally, his putts per round rank 150th and 155th on Thursdays and Fridays which adds to the inconsistency.

Sahith Theegala came back after withdrawing from the Truist Championship. The American golfer missed the cut however at The Memorial and remains a questionable option in Canada. Theegala does not have a since result inside the Top 15 all season. He did finish T-17 at The Genesis Invitational more than three months ago. From neck issues to errant drives, Theegala has had a nightmarish 2025 compared to 2024. Every major metric is way off and it leads to speculation that a rest or surgery is possible. Again, strokes gained total has gone from 16th to 149th on tour. Theegala keeps playing hoping for a turnaround. However, with so few parts of his golf game working well, bettors probably should look elsewhere.

Justin Rose has not won on the PGA Tour in 2025. However, the English golfer has three Top 10 finishes and that includes losing a playoff in The Masters. Rose has climbed back into the Top 20 in the OWGR (Golf World Rankings) as well. He has not played quite as well since the opening major, but there are rounds when one closes their eyes and Rose looks in his 20's again (66 on Friday at The Memorial). While Rose had a tough weekend (80-72), it did not dim his outlook. Rose can contend anywhere and everywhere (11 career PGA wins and 12 international wins). He does need to be more accurate at TPC Toronto at Osprey Village. His greens in regulation has fallen to 166th overall at 61.11%. That could hinder his betting outlook.

John Pak is learning on the fly via the PGA Tour. The American golfer played a lot of New Jersey area golf courses but nothing could prepare him for what pro life has been like. Pak has shown flashes of very good form including a 63 and 68 at the Charles Schwab. However, the last time he fired a round in the 60's on the weekend was in Mexico in February. Overall, Pak has made eight of 13 cuts in 2025. Pak ranks 161st in FedEx Cup points and needs to start finding more consistency. Driving the ball only 287.6 yards on average (169th) may be a problem in Toronto with a golf course that rolls in at 7,389 yards. This could keep Pak from being a cheaper DFS option this week.

Kurt Kitayama has had an adventurous 2025 season. The American golfer has made seven cuts and missed seven cuts. He has one Top 5 result (The CJ CUP at Byron Nelson) and yet week-to-week consistency is nowhere to be found. After missing the cut at the PGA Championship, Kitayama looked very good for three rounds at the Charles Schwab only to miss several putts en route to a 73 which dropped him out of the Top 20. Putting over four rounds has been a struggle all year for Kitayama. The Back 9 blues were real as the Californian included a four bogeys or worse stretch in six holes. Missed putts only added to the misery. It all depends on which golfer shows up in Toronto this week.

Missing the US Open might discourage some golfer, but then there is Max Homa. The American golfer has won six times on the PGA Tour. However, he was carrying his own bags to try and qualify for the third major in 2025. Homa fell short but he has had flashes of the golfer who won twice in 2021 and 2022, and then in 2023. Homa shot a 68 to open The Memorial but then blew up to a 79-75-77 over the final three days. Even at the PGA Championship, Homa fired a 64 to make the cut and then followed up with a 76 and 77 over the weekend. The Californian has looked off again since The Masters in April. One has to approach greens well in Toronto and ranking 173rd in greens in regulation (59.97%) bodes poorly for Homa.

Nick Dunlap has not had it too easy the past few months. The young American golfer had missed four straight cuts at one point and has not finished inside the Top 40 since The Genesis Invitational way back in February (T-17). That included some hideous opening rounds (two 80's and a 90 at The Masters). Dunlap is getting the grandest lesson a golfer can ask for. He did weather the storm to finish +8 at The Memorial though. Dunlap's biggest weakness is off the tee. He loses a whopping 1.625 strokes gained because his accuracy is 46.28% (178th) and worse is 151st at 293.9 yards per drive. The North course at TPC Toronto at Osprey Village stands at 7,389 yards and is a Par-70. Dunlap may be one to tread carefully.

Joel Dahmen is struggling with his golf game right now. The veteran American golfer has missed three straight cuts. Worse, it is four if one counts the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Heading into the RBC Canadian Open, Dahmen last shot under par one month ago. He has been taking weeks off lately, but despite three Top 10 results, Dahmen ranks 85th in FedEx cup points. His strokes gained to putting ranks 151st at -0.315. When he makes a cut, his putts per final round is 30.33 (170th). Dahmen is a +17000 long shot to win on the TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley golf course. From a betting standpoint, fading the veteran is a better option.

The disappointing season looks destined to continue for Tom Kim this week in Canada, unless everything about what we've seen from the South Korean over his last six starts does a drastic about-face. Since the first stop in Texas at the Valero, Kim has averaged -0.958 strokes gained on approach and -0.276 off the tee. That doesn't do anything productive on the PGA Tour, and mix in the long nature both off the tee and coming into greens this week at TPC Toronto, Kim doesn't inspire any level of confidence at $9,200 on FanDuel.

The return to the PGA Tour hasn't quite been what Harry Higgs has needed to feel any sense of job security for next season. He's only managed one quality finish, which came at the alternate Myrtle Beach Event (T2) a few weeks ago. That was good enough to secure a spot in last week's event at Muirfield Village, but the 33-year-old was unable to take advantage of the opportunity as he lost strokes putting, chipping, and off the tee en route to a T51 finish. His length off the tee gives him last-ditch flyer pick appeal, but nothing else at $7,500 on FanDuel.

It's undoubtedly been a strange season thus far for Ludvig Aberg, who bounced back from three poor outings that included a missed cut at the PGA last week in Dublin. The Swede gained strokes in all facets at Muirfield Village, but a final round 66 was the only thing that made his week even remotely successful, as he posted scores of 75-71-77 over the first three days. Aberg possesses more optimism this week in Canada. TPC Toronto figures to be heavily dependent on driving the ball well, which is the one part of the game he's consistently delivered on in 2025, ranking 15th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.444). Approach proximity numbers rank inside the top 50 from most distances; however, hitting less than 65% of greens is severely limiting chances to score. The 25-year-old is one of the more talented young players on the PGA Tour, and it's hard not to get excited when he shows any flash of form. It just may be better to let others take the chance, given all the negatives that are still present.

Things have cooled off for Keith Mitchell since his run through the latter part of the spring events, with a missed cut at Quail Hollow and a T36 at Colonial. His short game has let him down, losing nearly six shots in strokes gained around the green over that span, while also dipping a significant amount with his approach play. TPC Toronto looks to be hyper-focused on length off the tee and approach shots from longer distances, which bodes well for the former Georgia Bulldog. Mitchell ranks seventh this season in strokes gained off the tee (+0.622) and 11th in driving distance (313.9). He also rates well in hole proximity from 200-250 yards and par-4 scoring average (3.95). At $11,000 on FanDuel, the 33-year-old makes total sense this week for Canada's National Open.

Matt Wallace finished tied for 22nd at the Charles Schwab Challenge two weeks ago and is now focusing on preparing for this week's RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto – Osprey Valley in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This season, Wallace has three top-25 finishes but has also missed the cut six times in his 14 starts. Over the past 12 months, he ranks in the 12th percentile in proximity to the hole on approach shots from 150-200 yards in the fairway. This is particularly relevant because the North Course at TPC Toronto is over 7,300 yards long, making it the fifth-longest course on the PGA Tour rotation this season.

This season, Højgaard has four top-25 finishes but has also missed the cut four times in his 12 starts. Over the past 12 months, he ranks in the 87th percentile in proximity to the hole on approach shots from 150-200 yards in the fairway. This is particularly relevant because the North Course at TPC Toronto measures over 7,300 yards, making it the fifth longest course on the PGA Tour rotation this season.

Byeong Hun An missed the cut at last week's Memorial Tournament and is looking to bounce back at this week's RBC Canadian Open, which will be held at TPC Toronto – Osprey Valley in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. So far this season, An has four top-25 finishes but has also missed the cut four times in his 15 starts. Over the past 12 months, An ranks in the 53rd percentile in proximity to the hole on approach shots from 150-200 yards in the fairway. This is important because the North Course at TPC Toronto measures over 7,300 yards, making it the fifth longest course on the PGA Tour rotation this season.
