Canadian Nick Taylor rallies for historic win in a playoff at RBC Canadian Open with a 72-foot eagle

Nick taylor beat tommy fleetwood in a 4-hole playoff to win the rbc canadian open on sunday.

For the first time in nearly seven decades, a Canadian has won the RBC Canadian Open.

Nick Taylor held on and beat Tommy Fleetwood in a four-hole playoff in the PGA Tour’s only Canadian event on Sunday afternoon. He posted a 6-under 66, and then defeated Fleetwood to win at Oakdale Golf and Country Club in Toronto.

Pat Fletcher was the last Canadian to win the event in 1954. Taylor is now the fifth Canadian to have three or more wins on the Tour.

Taylor beat Fleetwood with a wild 72-foot eagle putt on the fourth playoff hole — which prompted a huge celebration from his fellow Canadian Tour members on the green. It was the longest putt Taylor has made in his career on Tour.

"I'm speechless," an emotional Taylor said on CBS. "This is for all the guys that are here. This is for my family at home ... I'm very speechless. This is the most incredible feeling ever."

The celebration got so crazy that at one point, a security guard tackled fellow Canadian Adam Hadwin on the green.

Taylor nearly got Fleetwood on the first playoff hole after sticking his third shot to just about 5 feet from the edge of the bunker as rain started to fall. But Fleetwood drained a 20.5-foot birdie putt of his own to extend the playoff.

Fleetwood’s approach landed in the grandstands on the second playoff hole, which forced him to drop in the rough well below the green.

Taylor, who landed shy of the green on the far side, then chipped up and set himself up with a 20-foot birdie putt — which he narrowly missed. Fleetwood popped his chip up and left himself with about an 11-foot birdie putt, but he missed too. So, the pair went off to the third playoff hole, this time at the par-3 ninth.

Both golfers left their tee shots just off the front edge of the green and settled for par, so they returned to the 18th for a fourth playoff hole.

Finally, Taylor pulled it off. After landing his drive in a divot just off the fairway, Taylor stuck his second shot on the green on the par-5. That led him to the 72-foot eagle putt and the win.

"I mean, nice moment for Nick and the fans here," Fleetwood said. "So it's great to be a part of that Sunday and that playoff. I had my chances, really. It wasn't to be this time. But, yeah, congratulations to him."

Taylor holds on after Fleetwood forces playoff in Toronto

Taylor’s week in Toronto didn’t start out great. After a tumultuous start for the Tour in general — with Tour commissioner Jay Monahan’s surprise announcement about a merger with LIV Golf and an emergency players meeting at the course — Taylor carded an opening-round 75. By the end of Moving Day, however, Taylor was just three shots back. He matched the course record Saturday with a 9-under 63.

He then quickly flew ahead to a two-shot lead on Sunday, thanks to five birdies in his first 10 holes of the day. He was draining putts left and right, including a nearly 25-footer on the fourth hole and a 17-footer at the sixth.

Though Taylor slipped with a bogey at No. 11, he reached the green in two on the par-5 12th to instantly offset it. Just like that, he was back up by two. By the time he reached the 14th, he was met with a huge rendition of “O Canada” by fans at The Rink.

Meanwhile, Tyrrell Hatton was in the middle of a run of his own to threaten Taylor’s win. Hatton made 10 birdies and went 8-under Sunday to match Taylor when he got into the clubhouse. Hatton even made a double bogey on No. 8, but ended his day with four straight birdies.

And, thanks to a bogey at the 16th, Hatton even briefly had the lead.

Taylor, however, played the last two holes perfectly. He sank a 17-foot birdie putt at the 17th to take a share of the lead again as he stepped up to the final hole.

Taylor then reached the back edge of the par-5 18th in two, which set up his birdie to briefly retake the solo lead.

Fleetwood, after back-to-back birdies of his own to get within a share of the lead by the final hole, parred the 18th to force a playoff. He entered the round just two shots back himself, and finished the day with a 5-under 67.

Fleetwood was searching for the first win of his career on Tour. The Englishman has won six times on the DP World Tour, most recently at the Nedbank Golf Challenge last year. Hatton, Aaron Rai and CT Pan finished in third at 16-under. Hatton had 10 birdies in his round and offset a double bogey to jump 10 spots up the leaderboard with his final-round 64.

Taylor has now won three times on Tour. His last win was at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in 2020, which came almost five years after his inaugural win at the Sanderson Farms Championship early in the 2014-15 season.

Social Sharing

Canadians waited 69 years for this moment. So what's another four holes?

Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, B.C., won the RBC Canadian Open on Sunday at Toronto's Oakdale Golf and Country Club, becoming the first Canadian man to win at home since Pat Fletcher in 1954.

"To kind of break that curse, if [that's] you want to call — I'm pretty speechless. I don't think it's going to sink in for quite some time what happened today," Taylor said.

What happened was 22 holes of golf filled with highs and lows — and a career-defining putt at the end of it all.

Tied at 17-under, Taylor, 35, duelled with England's Tommy Fleetwood over four playoff holes — they matched each other with birdies and pars playing the 18th hole twice before each making a par on the ninth.

And so off they went back to the 18th. Fleetwood's tee shot landed in a bunker, but Taylor's settled on the first cut.

It allowed the Canadian to attack the green, and he did, leaving himself a long eagle putt. Fleetwood, meanwhile, laid up and was standing over a putt for birdie.

Taylor didn't let him hit it — he nailed his own putt from 72 feet, the longest of his career. The crowd around the 18th green leapt with joy.

"For that to drop was a huge surprise, but an amazing one," Taylor said.

Adam Hadwin, the Abbotsford, B.C., native who tied for 12th in the tournament, couldn't contain his excitement, rushing the green with a bottle of champagne in hand — only to be tackled by an unknowing security guard.

Elsewhere, tears flew and cheers streamed to the Toronto skies, which had been sending down rain throughout most of the playoff.

Along with Hadwin, there was Canadian golf royalty: 2003 Masters champion Mike Weir, who lost a playoff of his own at this tournament in 2004, was there, celebrating on the green.

"It means everything. I feel like we all support each other so much, for them to stick around. I think all of us said it this week, if us individually weren't the people to win, we really want another Canadian to do it and break this long drought."

Corey Conners, the 18-hole leader who struggled Sunday to wind up tied for 20th, was there to embrace Taylor as well.

"It's obviously a thrilling moment for Canadian golf," Conners told CBC Sports amid the celebration. "It's been far too long and I'm so thrilled for Nick. He's such a great guy and been playing great, so fun to see."

“This is the most incredible feeling ever.”<br><br>An emotional <a href="https://twitter.com/ntaylorgolf59?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@NTaylorGolf59</a> attempts to put into words what it means to win <a href="https://twitter.com/RBCCanadianOpen?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@RBCCanadianOpen</a>. <a href="https://t.co/ecOZGQ79s2">pic.twitter.com/ecOZGQ79s2</a> &mdash; @PGATOUR

The playoff took on the feel of an international competition. As the Canadian contingent followed Taylor, Fleetwood's countrymen Justin Rose and Tyrell Hatton were there to cheer on their man as he pursued a long-awaited first PGA Tour victory.

Fleetwood was greeted by applause as he left the green to sign his scorecard.

The crowd, meanwhile, was decidedly on Taylor's side — they booed Fleetwood's bad shots and politely clapped for his good ones.

"Nice moment for Nick and the fans here," Fleetwood said. "So it's great to be a part of that Sunday and that playoff. I had my chances, really. It wasn't to be this time."

'incredible moment'.

For Taylor, it was unbridled support, mixed in with nerves.

As Taylor kept his place atop the leaderboard through the final regulation holes, the crowds around him gradually swelled.

The Canadian was serenaded with the national anthem, as well as many chants with variations of his name.

And the release when that shocking putt rattled the cup was reminiscent of a hockey crowd watching its team win a playoff game in the fourth overtime.

"I knew just how pumped they were and they were trying to put every ounce of energy into it to help me pull it through," Taylor said.

Taylor becomes the fourth Canadian to win on the PGA Tour this season — the most ever. He joins Conners, Mackenzie Hughes and Adam Svensson in the winners' circle. The latter two both missed the cut at Oakdale.

"That is the most amazing thing I've ever seen!!!! Congrats @ntaylorgolf59! 20 years ago @mweirsy inspired a bunch of Canadians like Nick to pursue their dream, and now Nick has done the same. What a moment for Canadian golf," Hughes tweeted.

It's Taylor's third career PGA Tour victory. He also won the Sanderson Farms Championship in 2015 and the Pebble Beach Pro-Am in 2020.

He'll now move on to the U.S. Open next week at Los Angeles Country Club. He'll also play in his second-ever Masters next April.

Hatton, England's Aaron Rai and Taiwan's C.T. Pan tied for third at 16-under, while American Eric Cole fired a 9-under 63 to match the course record set by Taylor on Saturday and finish tied for sixth.

Playing alongside Fleetwood and Conners on Thursday, Taylor struggled to a 3-over 75, leaving an uphill climb just to make the cut.

"I was on the seventh hole, I remember, first day, my 16th hole, 10 feet for par and made that and birdied 8 and parred the last to somewhat be in the cut sight. So to be standing there and then sitting here today is pretty remarkable," Taylor said.

On Friday, he lowered his score by eight strokes — more than enough to make the cut, but still leaving him with an early tee time on Saturday.

Taylor credited a "talking-to" from wife Andie, who was at home for the turnaround.

"I was just kind of getting in my own way," he said. "I knew my game was there, but a little kick in the butt didn't hurt."

• ORAL HISTORY The story behind Tiger Woods' iconic shot at the 2000 Canadian Open

Taylor said he spoke to Andie and three-year-old son Charlie briefly after his victory.

"[Charlie] was probably shocked, like what the hell is going on? 'I made a big shot,' though, that's what he said."

The tournament began under a cloud of smoke — both literal and metaphorical. On Tuesday, the PGA Tour made a bombshell announcement that it was partnering with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, which backs rival tour LIV Golf.

At the same time, smoke from the wildfires in northern Ontario and Quebec weren't overly pervasive, especially the deeper the tournament went. There were no delays, and golfers said it didn't affect them.

By Sunday, Taylor made sure the full focus was on golf.

During his third round, playing partner Greyson Sigg, wowed at the crowds following Taylor, asked Taylor if he was famous in Canada.

Taylor said no.

Now, that's about to change. And he'll be in the history books forever.

2023 RBC Canadian Open final results: Prize money payout, leaderboard and how much each golfer won

The 2023 RBC Canadian Open final leaderboard is headed by winner Nick Taylor, who earns his third-career PGA Tour title with a win at Oakdale Golf and Country Club in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Taylor won the event with a 72-foot, 6-inch eagle putt on the fourth hole of a sudden-death playoff against Tommy Fleetwood on the par-5 18th hole. Both players finished regulation on 17-under 271.

The players made birdie on the 18th for the first playoff hole, then both made pars on 18 again and the 9th hole for the second and third playoff holes.

Aaron Rai, Tyrrell Hatton and CT Pan finished in joint third place, a shot out of the playoff.

Taylor becomes the first Canadian to win his national open in 69 years.

Taylor won the $1,620,000 winner's share of the $9,000,000 purse.

RBC Canadian Open recap notes

Taylor earned 36.6 Official World Golf Ranking points with the win in the 72-hole stroke-play championship, which helps his place in the world ranking.

Taylor earned 500 FedEx Cup points, with the PGA Tour points offered at the standard level for this national championship event.

A total of 74 (of 156) players finished the tournament in the 34th event of the 2022-2023 PGA Tour season after a 36-hole cut was made in this event.
