Last weeks review:
This PGA Tour season has been nothing short of unpredictable. Household names are faltering, while journeymen and underdogs are seizing the spotlight. The Memorial Tournament was the latest chapter in that script, as J.T. Poston—who had shown little form all year—emerged from obscurity to claim a signature event victory. Poston, whose season had been defined by mediocrity, stunned the field by outlasting Ryan Gerard in a playoff. The win not only delivered him the prestige of Jack Nicklaus’s storied event, but also a staggering $4 million payday—nearly seven times his total earnings for the year up to that point. It was a triumph that underscored the volatility of 2026: a season where consistency has been elusive, and where players outside the spotlight are suddenly cashing in on golf’s richest stages.
Preview
Ryan Fox defended his crown at the 2026 RBC Canadian Open, taking home $1.764 million from a $9.8 million purse at TPC Toronto’s Osprey Valley. The North Course’s bentgrass greens and fescue rough demanded precision, rewarding players with sharp iron play and mental toughness.

Prediction Summary:
Sam Burns 6 units win +1500 , 6 units Top 5 +380,
Sam Burns has been quietly stacking results on the PGA Tour, his steady climb in strokes gained statistics telling the story of a player rounding into form. A T4 finish at the Memorial last week underscored that progress, and now his game looks tailor-made for the demanding test of the RBC Canadian Open. With accuracy off the tee, crisp iron play, and the patience to handle Osprey Valley’s bentgrass greens and fescue rough, Burns arrives in Canada as a contender whose consistency may finally translate into a win.
Kristoffer Reitan 4 units win +2800, 4 units Top 5 +620
Reitan has been the model of consistency over the past two months, quietly stacking results while others falter. But it’s not just steadiness that sets him apart—he currently leads the PGA Tour in driving distance, averaging a jaw-dropping 336 yards off the tee. That combination of reliability and raw power makes him one of the most imposing figures in the field, a player whose game can overwhelm courses and wear down opponents.
Jacob Bridgeman 2.5 units win +4500, 2.5 units Top 5 +900
Jacob Bridgeman’s rise up the Official World Golf Ranking has been steady since turning professional, but 2025 marked a breakout year where his form surged exponentially. Despite that momentum, he remains undervalued heading into this week’s RBC Canadian Open—a sleeper pick whose trajectory suggests he could surprise in the spotlight.
Mac Meissner 2 units win +6500, 2 units top 5 +1250
Mac Meissner’s recent form has been right up there with the best on Tour over the past couple of months, making him one of the more intriguing dark horses in the field. At +6500, the outright number offers tremendous value given his trajectory, while +1250 for a top-five finish looks equally enticing. In a season defined by volatility and surprise winners, Meissner’s odds stand out as a calculated gamble with real upside.
