The world's top-ranked men's golfer will play in the RBC Canadian Open in June.
Golf Canada announced Tuesday that Scottie Scheffler of the United States will make his debut in the PGA Tour event, June 9-12, at St. George's Golf and Country Club in Toronto.
The 25-year-old captured the World Golf Championships-Dell Technologies Match Play with a 4 & 3 win over Kevin Kisner in the finale last weekend. His first WGC title was his third PGA Tour victory in the last five starts.
It took Scheffler 92 starts to get to No. 1. Only Tiger Woods (21 starts) and fellow Texan Jordan Spieth (77 starts) needed fewer starts as a professional to ascend to the top of golf’s ranking.
The Canadian Open returns in June after being cancelled the past two years because of COVID-19.
