The 2025 RBC Canadian Open is highly competitive with Matteo Manassero and Ryan Fox leading at 14 under, while Mackenzie Hughes, a top Canadian contender, is among a large group of players within four strokes of the lead, setting the stage for an exciting and unpredictable final round at TPC Toronto.
Sleeper picks for the Texas Children's Houston Open include Mackenzie Hughes for outright win, Taylor Moore for top 5, Akshay Bhatia for top 10, Martin Laird for top 20, and Tom Whitney for top 40. These picks are based on recent performances and their suitability for the challenging Memorial Park course.
Jon Rahm has been officially suspended by the PGA Tour, preventing him from defending his title at the season-opening Sentry and two other Tour stops in 2024. This suspension has resulted in significant changes for three other players, with Mackenzie Hughes gaining entry into signature events, Alex Smalley receiving starts at Pebble and Riviera, and Carl Yuan obtaining a full card. Rahm's departure from the PGA Tour was expected due to his association with unauthorized tournaments, and he had already withdrawn from the TGL league before its postponement.
The PGA TOUR resumes with the Sanderson Farms Championship in Jackson, Mississippi, featuring notable players like Webb Simpson, Kevin Kisner, and defending champion Mackenzie Hughes. The tournament will be the last chance for players to secure cards for 2024, with the top 125 in points earning membership. The Country Club of Jackson, the host course, is known for its challenging par 5s and tight fairways. The weather is expected to be favorable for scoring on Thursday and Sunday, but windy conditions are likely on Friday and Saturday. The key to success at this course is hitting greens and making putts, as demonstrated by last year's winner, Mackenzie Hughes.
