Rory McIlroy's Actions at Canadian Open Turn Heads originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
The 2025 RBC Canadian Open tees off from Thursday through Sunday at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course) in Caledon, Ontario.
This week’s field includes local favorites like Corey Conners, Mackenzie Hughes and Nick Taylor, alongside international standouts such as Ludvig Aberg, Justin Rose and World No. 2 Rory McIlroy.
On Wednesday, one day before official competition began, a touching moment unfolded at TPC Toronto’s practice range.
A young fan approached McIlroy wearing a pint-sized Masters Green Jacket.
When McIlroy spotted the miniature jacket, he joked with a grin, "It took me a little longer to get one of those."
The lighthearted jab referenced his April victory at Augusta National, which had completed his career Grand Slam just weeks earlier.
Within minutes of the footage being posted online, fans flooded social media with reactions.
"That's fun , " said one user.
"That is awesome ," responded another fan.
"Sweet green suit with sweet dreams! Rory is magic! ," another commenter replied.
"So cute! ," one other user commented.
"Lil bro said 'bro it took you 35 years' ," said another fan.
Another commenter simply replied, "Amazing."
