TORONTO -- The RBC Canadian Open has been pulled from the schedule for the second straight year, marking one of the first cancellations of a major annual Canadian sports event in the spring or summer of 2021. Golf Canada made the announcement on Tuesday due to issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The decision was made in consultation with the PGA Tour and main sponsor RBC. "Even with an extensive health and safety plan in place, we faced a number of significant logistical challenges that led us to this decision," said PGA Tour president Tyler Dennis in a statement. The Canadian national men's golf championship was also cancelled in 2020 because of travel restrictions.
