Dough, Canada.
The RBC Canadian Open is here once again, and everyone, including two-time defending champ Rory McIlroy, is trying to cash in on a small bump in pay from the 2022 edition.
Last year, the Canadian Open held an $8.7 million purse, which was a big jump from the 2019 Canadian Open, with a bag set at $7.6 million. This year's check is a bit more, with a nice paycheck for whoever walks away from Toronto with the victory.
