Friday Night Recap - RBC Canadian Open

Hello members,

Weather was tough today but you wouldn’t have known it by just looking at the scores. Lowest of the day was 8-under by Tyrrel Hatton to move into T2 and one behind the leader, Carl Yuan. Yuan followed up his opening 68 with a 67 today. If you don’t know him, he has some pretty wild swings so hopefully we can see some of that this weekend in the coverage.

Rory McIlroy, also, shot 5-under 67 and is currently three behind. Canadian Corey Conners is one stroke behind the lead and could make history this weekend!

The cut ended up at 1-under. Some notable players missing the weekend are:

  • Sam Burns - Even

  • Mackenzie Hughes - 2-over

  • Michael Block - 2-over

  • Keith Mitchell - 3-over

Weather will be better tomorrow so more lows scores are expected. Moving day is upon us!

Weather

Weather for Saturday is much better. Little to no rain with highs in the low 70s and lows in the low 60s.

Updated Betting Odds

My pre-tournament picks:

  • Rory McIlroy - +550 - 5-under 67 today to move to 6-under for the tournament. Currently tied for 12th and 3 strokes back.

  • Corey Conners - +550 - 3-under 69 and only 1 stroke back from the lead. Could make history this weekend!

  • Keith Mitchell - n/a - missed the cut… whomp whomp.
