Jackson Suber takes Canadian Open and goes for first PGA Tour title

The Associated Press 3 minute read Yesterday at 6:03 PM CDT

CALEDON, Ontario (AP) — Jackson Suber got up-and-down for birdie on the par-5 18th hole Saturday for a 4-under 66, giving him a one-shot lead over Bud Cauley going into the final round of a wide-open RBC Canadian Open.

It was the first 54-hole lead for Suber, whose best PGA Tour finish came three weeks ago at The CJ Cup Byron Nelson when he tied for fourth, seven shots out of the lead.

Bud Cauley hit his tee shot to inches on the rowdy par-3 14th hole, the start of three straight birdies that carried him to a 66, leaving him in position for his first PGA Tour title.

Missing from the mix was 36-hole leader Ben James, who plunged out of contention with a 78, and Brooks Koepka, who had to deal with a mysterious feeling in his left arm that made it difficult for him to grip the club most of the day.

‘One of us’: Sudarshan Yellamaraju low Canadian after 3 rounds at RBC Canadian Open

John Chidley-Hill, The Canadian Press 3 minute read Yesterday at 6:01 PM CDT

CALEDON - After every shot Sudarshan Yellamaraju heard the same things. "'Sauga City!" "We're behind you!" and more than anything else "One of us!"

Yellamaraju, from nearby Mississauga, Ont., shot a 5-under 65 on Saturday to finish the third round of the RBC Canadian Open tied for seventh at 10 under, three shots back of leader Jackson Suber. It also made him the low Canadian heading into the national men's golf championship's final round.

The 24-year-old said he heard the cheers but didn't want to react to them too much as he focused on gaining ground on a packed leaderboard.

"I've been just trying to do the best that I can," said Yellamaraju, who is in his first season on the PGA Tour. "I think this year I've learned that when I'm doing well, I am inspiring others, so it is kind of cool to see.

South Korean duo takes Dow Championship lead in LPGA team event as Korda and Cowan falter

The Associated Press 2 minute read Yesterday at 5:07 PM CDT

MIDLAND, Mich. (AP) — Hyo Joo Kim and Hye-Jin Choi handled a swirling wind Saturday and made enough birdies to be among only six teams who broke par, posting a 1-under 69 in foursomes to build a one-shot lead in the Dow Championship.

Double major winner Nelly Korda and Olivia Cowan will need another big showing in Sunday fourballs if they want a chance to catch them. They made only one birdie, had bogey on both par 5s at Midland Country Club and shot 76 to fall six shots behind.

Korda and Cowan were tied for 13th. It will be only the second time this year on the LPGA that Korda is not in the final group.

Kim and Choi, the South Korean duo who are both among the top 20 in the women's world ranking, were at 10-under 200.

Suber takes third-round lead at RBC Canadian Open; Yellamaraju low Canadian

John Chidley-Hill, The Canadian Press 3 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 6:39 PM CDT

CALEDON - Jackson Suber was trying not to look at the RBC Canadian Open leaderboard throughout his third round but when he came to the 18th tee box he knew what he had to do.

Suber birdied the par-5 hole at TPC Toronto to take a one-stroke lead after 54 holes on Saturday at the national men's golf championship. It capped a 4-under 66 round and put him at 13 under overall.

"I saw the lead was at 13 at one point, but I've been trying not to look at the leaderboards too much," said Suber. "But I saw on 17 that the leaders were at 12 under and so I knew that whoever was at 13 maybe had made a bogey.

"I figured that, but it really didn't matter too much. I knew that there's still tomorrow, so a birdie was nice there, but didn't try to force it or anything."

US OPEN ’26: Adam Scott in elite company playing his 100th consecutive major

Doug Ferguson, The Associated Press 6 minute read Yesterday at 5:01 AM CDT

Adam Scott doesn't feel any differently now than eight years ago when he was 30 feet and two putts away from securing a spot in the U.S. Open at a grueling 36-hole qualifier. He got it done and extended his streak to 17 years in a row playing all the majors.

It was gratifying, yes, but not what he was chasing.

“I am playing all these majors to win them, not just to show up,” Scott said on that humid Ohio evening in 2018.

Nothing has changed except the number, and it's one worth celebrating. When the 45-year-old Australian tees off Thursday in the U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills, it will be his 100th consecutive major.

CALEDON - Fourteen hours made all the difference in the world for Matthew Anderson.

When the 26-year-old from Mississauga, Ont., teed off at 9:12 a.m. on Friday in the second round of the RBC Canadian Open there was an expectant gallery waiting for him. When he reached No. 14 at TPC Toronto, the signature hole of the PGA Tour event dubbed "The Rink," fans stood and sang "O Canada." They then roared their approval when he pulled on a Toronto Blue Jays jersey before teeing off on the par-3 hole.

It was a stark contrast from the previous evening when, as the last golfer on the course, he surged up the leaderboard into a six-way tie for first at the men's national championship in front of only a handful of fans.

"I definitely had some more followers from the beginning, which was awesome," said Anderson. "I threw on the Jays jersey at The Rink, which definitely did pretty well. Unfortunately, that putt just missed low, but you can't make 'em all.

MIDLAND, Mich. (AP) — Nelly Korda found the perfect tonic for the week after the biggest win of her career. The U.S. Women’s Open champion is playing with good friend Olivia Cowan of Germany in the Dow Championship, two shots out of the lead Friday held by Polly Mack and Celine Borge.

The final two days at Midland Country Club also includes Juli Inkster, the 66-year-old Hall of Famer who became the oldest player to make the cut when she teamed with 27-year-old Angel Yin for a 68 in fourballs.

“I’m happy I played,” said Inkster, born 10 years after the LPGA was founded. “Sometimes you’ve got to put yourself out there and I felt like I did that this week.”

Mack and Borge were among the late starters and posted a 60 to reach 12-under 128 and zoom past the Japanese duo of Ayaka Furue and Yuna Nishimura (61).

Ben James takes lead in Canada in his pro debut

The Associated Press 4 minute read Friday, Jun. 12, 2026

CALEDON, Ontario (AP) — Ben James holed a 25-foot eagle putt to start his round and never let up until he had a 7-under 63 for a one-shot lead in his professional debut at the RBC Canadian Open.

James was an All-American all four years at Virginia and led the PGA Tour University ranking to earn a card through the 2027 season.

“It all kind of came together today. It was just one of those days,” James said. “The putter was good, hitting fairways, had good numbers, and was able to capitalize on a pretty tricky scoring day.”

James was at 10-under 130, one shot over a group of five players that included Sam Burns, who played in the final group at the Memorial last week and tied for fourth.

US Open: How to watch, who’s playing and the betting favorites

Doug Ferguson, The Associated Press 6 minute read Friday, Jun. 12, 2026

Shinnecock Hills is the only golf club to host the U.S. Open over three centuries. In the five previous championships, only three players have finished under par.

That's what awaits Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and the rest of the field for the 126th edition of golf's second-oldest championship. And if they are not on edge about the toughest test in golf, the USGA might be.

The last two U.S. Opens at Shinnecock Hills are remembered for more than just the winners. The greens were so firm and fast in 2004 officials had to spray water on the seventh green between groups because golf balls wouldn't stay on the putting surface. The greens and pin positions were so severe in 2018 that none of the last 45 players to tee off in the third round broke par.

What awaits this year? The USGA is promising to let Shinnecock Hills be itself, with the hope that the wind and the course is enough to identify the best player.

CALEDON - Ben James certainly knows how to make a splash.

The 23-year-old American had an eagle on his first hole and didn't slow down in a bogey-free 7-under round on Friday to put him a shot ahead of the field at 10 under overall at the RBC Canadian Open. James officially turned pro on Thursday when he teed off in the PGA Tour event's first round.

"I wasn't really thinking about results at all this week," said James after signing his scorecard at TPC Toronto. "Just worried about getting comfortable, making new friends and having fun, and just seeing where everything kind of falls. Just seeing where my game stacks up."

China's Haotong Li (67) and Americans Sam Burns (67) and Jackson Suber (65) were in a three-way tie a shot behind James after the morning wave. Sweden's Jesper Svensson (65) and Keith Mitchell (64) of the United States caught up to them in the afternoon for a five-way tie for second.

US OPEN ’26: Scottie Scheffler trying to make history and Shinnecock tries to avoid recent history

Doug Ferguson, The Associated Press 6 minute read Friday, Jun. 12, 2026

So much history is involved when the U.S. Open returns to Shinnecock Hills, the only golf club to host this major championship in three centuries.

Scottie Scheffler will try to take his place in history when the No. 1 player goes after the final leg of the career Grand Slam. Should he win, he would be the seventh player to win all four majors and join Tiger Woods as the only players since 1960 — the modern era of the slam — to get it done on his first try.

That ordinarily would be the sole focus of the 126th U.S. Open, to be played June 18-21, except for the recent history at Shinnecock Hills.

It has not been smooth sailing off the Great Peconic Bay on Long Island.
