Predictions

The Golfing Gazette writers give their predictions as to who they think will win the Canadian Open 2024:

Sam Stone: “Sahith Theegala stands a chance at Hamilton Golf and Country Club. The American is trending in the right direction and performed well at the PGA Championship. Also, the 26-year-old’s ability to be shot-shape could help him around this course. A good shot to land his second PGA Tour win here.”

Jordan Harris: “Shane Lowry is well-placed to follow his win alongside Rory McIlroy in New Orleans, and his tied sixth finish at the PGA Championship with a victory this week. No one has been more accurate driving off the tee on the PGA Tour this season, and that could be particularly important in Hamilton.”

Peter Lynch: “With two Canadian Open titles to his name, Rory McIlroy is surely in contention to make it a triple at Hamilton Golf and Country Club this week. The world number three clearly enjoys playing in Canada and having taken a brief rest following his tied-12 finish at the PGA Championship, McIlroy should be more than ready to lift the trophy once more.”
