As the RBC Canadian Open unfolds at TPC Toronto, golfers are gripping their clubs as Round 2 swings into action today, June 6, 2025. After a thrilling first round, which enabled Joel Dahmen to achieve his first hole-in-one after nearly a decade, excitement is at an all-time high. Dahmen, who gained newfound fame through his appearances on Netflix’s „Full Swing,“ fired a bogey-free 5-under 65 yesterday, pushing him into solo third, just two strokes behind the leaders and placing him at 8-under par for the tournament.
In a lighthearted response to Dahmen’s performance, RBC Canadian Open officials shared a playful message on social media, highlighting his rise in popularity after being featured in the popular series that chronicles the ups and downs of professional golfers. Now, as he approaches the third round on Saturday, June 7, teeing off with Andrew Novak at 3:15 p.m. ET, anticipation is building.
Top Contenders and Standout Performances
Round 1 saw impressive play from several players, with Thorbjørn Olesen and Cristobal Del Solar getting off to strong starts. Shane Lowry and the defending champion Robert MacIntyre are certainly familiar names to keep an eye on. Rory McIlroy, who heads into the tournament as the highest-ranked player, started his day at 1 over par and needs a solid performance to avoid missing the cut.
