OAKVILLE, Ontario – Golf Canada CEO Laurence Applebaum said the 2018 RBC Canadian Open would return to Glen Abbey Golf Club at a news conference Saturday morning. “Together with our partners at RBC, we are excited to announce the RBC Canadian Open will be contested at Glen Abbey Golf Club again in 2018,â€� Applebaum said. The course first hosted the Canadian Open in 1977. Canada’s national open will return to the Jack Nicklaus-designed course for the 30th time next year. “I’m very proud of Glen Abbey,â€� Nicklaus said on Tuesday. “I think it’s contributed a lot to the game of golf in Canada.â€� Although developers are poised to convert Glen Abbey into real estate, that process is unlikely to begin for another five years or so as the Town of Oakville – about 35 minutes from downtown Toronto – continues with legal deliberations. 2018 will mark the fifth time in six years that Glen Abbey will play host to the Canadian Open – Royal Montreal Golf Course hosted the 2014 event, won by Tim Clark – while from 2010-2012 the Canadian Open visited three different courses: St. George’s Golf and Country Club (2010), Shaughnessy Golf & Country Club (2011), and Hamilton Golf and Country Club (2012). One of the hot topics of late is whether a national open should move around the country, not unlike the U.S. Open, with a rotation of courses all playing host. But Glen Abbey remains the only course in Canada that was built with the main objective of hosting the Canadian Open. “Glen Abbey has proven to be one of the world’s premier stadium courses for spectators and fan engagement,â€� explained Applebaum, who continued to say Golf Canada would be looking at a permanent site in the Greater Toronto Area to not only host future RBC Canadian Opens, but also Golf Canada’s offices and the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame. Nicklaus also believes the event should have a permanent home. “I think if you look at Augusta (National) and what’s happened at Augusta (National) and have one location that’s helped grow it. I think the other tournaments struggle a little bit from time to time moving from site to site,â€� he said. “I can understand it’s your national championship and wanting to move from site to site, but if you really want to grow something into something significant, I think probably the best you can do is be at one place.“
