Multiple PGA Tour winner Matt Kuchar WDs from RBC Canadian Open

Multiple PGA Tour winner Matt Kuchar has withdrawn from the RBC Canadian Open. 

No reason has been given yet as to why Kuchar has decided to skip the annual stop that is being played this year at TPC Toronto. 

Kuchar has been replaced in the field by Dylan Wu.

The 46-year-old wasn't alone in deciding not to play. 

Ben Martin, Brandon Matthews, Michael Kim, Anders Albertson and Michael Thorbjornsen were also listed as withdrawals by the PGA Tour's communications team on 2 June. 

The RBC Canadian Open gets underway on Thursday with Rory McIlroy headlining the field. 

Other PGA Tour stars in action include Sweden's Ludivg Aberg, Ireland's Shane Lowry and Canada's home hope Corey Conners. 

Scotland's Bob MacIntyre is the defending champion. 

McIlroy is making his first start since his disappointing performance at the 2025 PGA Championship.

He went into the major with hopes of completing a clean sweep of the remaining majors following his emotional victory at The Masters.

McIlroy is due to speak to media tomorrow in one of the most eagerly-anticipated press conferences in recent memory. 

The 36-year-old has been criticised in recent weeks for snubbing media at Quail Hollow and not giving Jack Nicklaus a heads-up he was skipping the Memorial.

Former PGA Tour member turned golf commentator Smylie Kaufman recently explained why he thinks McIlroy has come in for criticism. 

GolfMagic's Andy Roberts has laid out five questions he wants the Northern Irishman to answer.

The RBC Canadian Open has a total purse of $9.8m. 

It is the penultimate event of the PGA Tour's schedule before the U.S. Open at Oakmont.
