Ryan Fox has been playing some solid golf as of late. He won at the ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic a few weeks ago to qualify for the PGA Championship, where he was in contention for three days until shooting a final round 73. While Fox has a short history at the RBC Canadian Open with only one start, he finished T7 in last year's edition. This year, the tournament will be held at TPC Toronto instead of the usual Hamilton Golf and Country Club. The course measures 7,400 yards and rewards distance off the tee and solid iron play, which Fox has excelled at this year. He ranks 56th in driving distance (304.5 yards) and 35th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.380 strokes gained per round). His game suits this course well, and his solid play makes him a strong pick this week. His very low price of $7,700 on DraftKings makes him even more enticing.

Mackenzie Hughes has played mostly solid golf this season. He has finished in the top 10 three times, including a runner-up at the ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic. However, he has missed three cuts in his last five starts. This week's RBC Canadian Open is an event where Hughes has thrived in his career. He has made eight career starts at the event and has finished T28 or better four times, including two top 10s—this year's event shifts to TPC Toronto instead of the usual Hamilton Golf and Country Club. With a 7,400-yard layout, this year's venue rewards distance off the tee and strong iron play. He has struggled in both areas this year, ranking 95th in driving distance (300.3 yards) and 117th in strokes gained on approach (-0.118 strokes per round). His success at this event makes him an enticing option, but the new venue may present a different challenge. It's best to avoid his hefty $8,900 price tag on DraftKings this week.

For the most part, Eric Cole has played solid golf throughout the 2025 season. Through 20 starts, he has missed only five cuts and been in the top 25 six times, including two top 10 finishes. Cole's history at the RBC Canadian Open is brief, with only two starts. However, he finished T6 in 2023 and missed the cut in 2024. This year, the event will be held at TPC Toronto. The course measures 7,400+ yards and rewards distance off the tee and solid iron play. His play off the tee has been below average at best, ranking 152nd in strokes gained off the tee (-0.329) and 114th in driving distance (297.9). On the other hand, his approach play has been solid, ranking 62nd on approach to green (+0.200). He's a boom or bust candidate this week at his expensive $8,100 price tag on DraftKings.

Rasmus Hojgaard has been steady this season, making nine cuts in 12 starts and collecting four top-25 finishes. He now heads to the RBC Canadian Open, where he missed the cut in his lone appearance back in 2022. This year's event moves to TPC Toronto, a 7,400-yard par 70 that should reward distance off the tee and strong long-iron play, both areas that suit Hojgaard's game. He ranks eighth in driving distance, 70th in strokes gained off the tee (plus-0.143 per round), and 16th in proximity from over 200 yards, a range likely to be critical on this lengthy setup. His overall approach game, however, is a concern, as he ranks just 149th while losing 0.362 strokes per round. At $8,000 on DraftKings, Hojgaard offers solid upside, but fantasy managers should be aware of the volatility.

Quade Cummins has been relatively steady since earning permanent PGA Tour status, making nine cuts in 14 starts with eight top-40 finishes. He'll look to keep that consistency going at the RBC Canadian Open, held this year at TPC Toronto. The 7,400-yard par-70 layout should favor players who are long off the tee and effective with their long irons. Cummins ranks 72nd in strokes gained off the tee (plus-0.139 per round), but just 112th in driving distance. His biggest concern lies in his approach play, where he ranks 124th overall (minus-0.136) and 174th in proximity from 200-plus yards—a range likely to be critical on this lengthy track. At $7,000 on DraftKings, Cummins' lack of distance and struggles with his long irons make him a tough sell for fantasy managers this week.

Matti Schmid has been the definition of boom-or-bust this season. Through 16 starts, he has missed nine cuts, but in each of the seven cuts he's made, he's finished inside the top 28. He now turns his attention to the RBC Canadian Open, where he's competed twice before, missing the cut both times. This year's event shifts to TPC Toronto, a 7,400-yard par 70 that should reward distance off the tee and strong long-iron play, areas that suit Schmid's game. He ranks 15th in driving distance, 98th in strokes gained off the tee (plus-0.028 per round), and 36th on approach (plus-0.372). Over the last 12 months, he also sits in the 90th percentile in proximity from 150–200 yards—a range likely to play a key role this week. At $7,500 on DraftKings, Schmid will need to make the cut to unlock his high-upside potential.

Jake Knapp has not taken many weeks off in 2025, starting in 16 events, making 11 cuts, and recording five top-25 finishes. He now turns to the RBC Canadian Open, being held at TPC Toronto for the first time. The course is a daunting test, measuring 7,400 yards as a par 70, and should reward distance off the tee and long-iron proficiency. Knapp is one of the longest hitters on tour, ranking 32nd in driving distance, but he's just 126th in strokes gained off the tee (minus-0.111 per round). He also ranks 67th on approach (plus-0.182) and sits in the 81st percentile in proximity from 200-plus yards over the last 12 months, a range that could prove critical on this layout. Knapp has missed back-to-back cuts, but his power gives him bounce-back potential. At $7,800 on DraftKings, he offers solid value, though he'll need to put his full game together to contend.

Through 14 events this season, Doug Ghim has made 10 cuts and posted three top-25 finishes. He'll look to keep this trend going at the RBC Canadian Open, where he's finished inside the top 20 twice in three starts (the third was a withdrawal due to illness). This year's tournament moves to TPC Toronto, a 7,400-yard par 70 that should reward strong off-the-tee play and long-iron precision. Ghim ranks 42nd in strokes gained off the tee (plus-0.047 per round), 19th from tee to green (plus-0.860), and 20th on approach (plus-0.516). He's also in the 78th percentile in proximity from 200-plus yards over the past 12 months, a distance range that could prove crucial this week. At $7,300 on DraftKings, Ghim offers good value for fantasy managers.

Gary Woodland has delivered a mixed bag of results this season, with four missed cuts and five top-25 finishes across his first 13 starts. He'll look to find consistency at the RBC Canadian Open, held for the first time at TPC Toronto, a 7,400-yard par 70 that will likely reward distance off the tee and long-iron play. Woodland ranks 57th in strokes gained off the tee (plus-0.213 per round), 50th on approach (plus-0.280), and eighth in driving distance. He's also 34th on tour in proximity on approaches from 200-plus yards, which should be a key range given the course length. At $7,700 on DraftKings, Woodland can be viewed as a solid value play this week.

Rory McIlroy has been on a heater this season, racking up three wins and five additional top-25 finishes. He'll look to keep the momentum going at the RBC Canadian Open, where he's already a two-time winner in just four starts. This year's tournament shifts to TPC Toronto, a 7,400-yard par 70 that should fit McIlroy's strengths. Ball-striking and distance will be key, and McIlroy ranks first in strokes gained off the tee (plus-0.776 per round), third from tee to green (plus-1.974), 39th on approach (plus-0.353), and third in driving distance. For fantasy managers, there's no need to overthink it—McIlroy is a must-start every week, and at $11,900 on DraftKings, he's worth the investment once again.

Since a T5 finish at the Houston Open, Wyndham Clark has been trending in the wrong direction, with just one finish inside the top 46 over his last six starts. He'll look to bounce back this week at the RBC Canadian Open, which is being held for the first time at TPC Toronto—a 7,400-yard par 70 that puts an emphasis on ball-striking. Clark currently ranks 90th in strokes gained off the tee (plus-0.068 per round), 95th from tee to green (minus-0.017), and just 147th on approach (minus-0.350). However, with a weaker field and strong distance off the tee (19th on tour), this could be a chance to regain some confidence. Still, at $8,600 on DraftKings, fantasy managers should approach with caution.

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.
