Rory McIlroy returns to RBC Canadian Open to face strong field

TORONTO, Ont. – marked his ball with a Canadian $1 coin, nicknamed a ‘Loonie,' the last time he played the RBC Canadian Open. He received one from his pro-am partner in 2019 and that extra luck worked. He won.

This year, tournament organizers came prepared.

“I turned up to the locker room and there was already one in my locker,” said McIlroy with a smile. “And then one of my pro-am partners gave me one this morning on the first green as well.

“I'm loaded with loonies this week.”
