Nick Taylor’s clutch putting sends Canadian fans into frenzy

Nick Taylor’s clutch putting sends Canadian fans into frenzy

    The PGA TOUR returns to Canada for the RBC Canadian Open, contested at Hamilton Golf and Country Club for the seventh time in the tournament's history. This year's event features a beloved defending champion in Nick Taylor, whose electric playoff victory over Tommy Fleetwood – featuring a 72-foot putt to seal the victory – broke a 69-year drought between homegrown champions at the RBC Canadian Open dating back to Canadian Pat Fletcher in 1954.

    The PGA TOUR uses a standardized system for determining event fields based on the current season’s Priority Ranking while also including additional exemption and qualifying categories.

    Field sizes can vary by event, as can the number of event-specific exemptions. Fully exempt PGA TOUR members are guaranteed entry into all full-field events, with various conditional categories subject to periodic reshuffles based upon FedExCup Points accrued throughout the season. Categories with "reshuffle" notation indicate that a reshuffle period has occurred.

    Note: An additional year of eligibility was granted to some categories because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
