Yesterday the My Basket's Team were fortunate enough to enjoy Practice Day 2 of the RBC Canadian Open. We were met with pleasantly enthusiastic volunteers and and hundreds of organizers getting ready for the big opening day. Practise Days are a great way to get see some of your favourite pro golfers up close and personal. Following your favourite golf pros is a great way to watch for tips to improve your own game!
Oakdale Golf and Country Club
This year's RBC Canadian Open is being hosted at the Oakdale Golf and Country Club. This incredible, prestine golf course was designed by Stanley Thompson and Robbie Robinson and lies in a ideal central location in the Greater Toronto Area. It has been transformed for Canada's largest golfing event.

History of the RBC Canadian Open
This is the third oldest continuously running tournament on the PGA TOUR, after The Open Championship and the U.S. Open.
According to RBC Canadian Open Website:
"Only two players have been able to capture golf’s Triple Crown (consisting of winning all three National Open titles in the same season); they are Lee Trevino (1971) and Tiger Woods (2000).
As a national open, the event had a special status in the era before the professional tour system became dominant in golf.
The top three golfers on the Mackenzie Tour – PGA Tour Canada Order of Merit prior to the tournament are given entry into the Canadian Open."
RBC Canadian Open and PGA gives young Canadian players a chance if they can qualify with about 20 spots available for new players.
Our Highlights:
Our personal highlight for the day was sitting on the first tee and watching from about 2 meters away Ryan Moore hit jaw-dropping drives 300+ yards. The players are warming up in great form and we're excited for the start of the competition tomorrow. It was wonderful to survey the entire course and see what the players are up against this year!

Delivered on time, and the packaging looked awesome
The basket was beautiful, arrived on time and the sales representative was very pleasant and extremely helpful! This is my favourite gift basket company! I’d highly recommend My Baskets, they are simply the best!
A U.K. customer used an AI agent to find local florists in Kitchener and Waterloo, (Canada), and My Baskets was recommended. Ordering was easy, and delivery was on time. The recipient loved the gift and was pleasantly surprised. They video called the sender and showed them the combo - the sender was very happy with the purchase.
The recipient suggested that delivery to include a knock or notification, as the gift was left at the door. Also in addition to this combo, recommend offering gift combinations with a slightly more savoury option.
It was for friends I don’t see but they were delighted with the delivery!
Lovely basket filled with delightful treats.
Present like offering and excellent processing of my order!
