The 2025 RBC Canadian Open kicks off Thursday morning with the first round at TPC Toronto. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the tournament on Thursday, including full RBC Canadian Open TV coverage, streaming info and Round 1 tee times.

How to watch Canadian Open on Thursday

Much of the attention at this week’s RBC Canadian Open will be on World No. 2 Rory McIlroy, and rightfully so. A two-time Canadian Open champion, McIlroy has three wins this year and captured his fifth major title at the Masters in April.

But many local fans will be more concerned with the play of Corey Conners.

At No. 21 in the Official World Golf Ranking, Conners is the top-ranked Canadian pro in the field, and as a result, will shoulder a good portion of fans’ hopes for a Canadian winner this week.

We’ll start to find out just how prepared Conners and McIlroy are in Thursday’s opening round.

You can watch the first round of the RBC Canadian Open on TV via Golf Channel, which will air coverage starting at 3 p.m. ET on Thursday. PGA Tour Live on ESPN+ will provide exclusive early coverage and featured group streaming coverage beginning at 6:45 a.m. ET.
