The number 121 has no obvious broad special meaning. But as it relates to the RBC Canadian Open, it’s significant in that the tournament started in 1904, 121 years ago. Englishman J.H. Oke won the championship that year, at the Royal Montreal Golf Club.

There’s been a lot of commentary about Rory McIlroy not playing this week’s Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio, for the first time in eight years. Jack Nicklaus hosts the tournament at his Muirfield Village Golf Club. It’s one of the PGA Tour’s signature events, with a limited field and a purse of $20 million, with $4 million to the winner. McIlroy, the No. 2-ranked player in the world, isn’t the only big name to decline playing in a signature event.

In early 2011 an editor at a Canadian magazine — not a golf publication — invited me to write an article about a prominent golfer. I suggested Rory McIlroy, having first watched him during the 2007 Open Championship at Carnoustie after my Irish friend and fellow golf writer Ivan Morris told me I should watch the then-18-year-old amateur prodigy from Holywood in Northern Ireland.

Some tournaments linger in memory, especially for those who have a personal stake in the outcome. Perhaps nobody except Rory McIlroy’s family and friends cared more about the outcome of the Masters that he won at Augusta National than Timothy Gay. He’s the author of the new book on McIlroy titled Rory Land, which will be published May 13th.

Love @ryanfoxgolfer’s style. Decisive, fast. Puts me in mind of Moe Norman, who also didn’t take a practice swing. Look @ the target & swing. Cool to see a Kiwi win the CDN Open again. I’m old enough to have been there the last time, in ‘68 at St. George’s when Bob Charles won.

Enjoyed the @TSN_Sports crew @GrahamDeLaet @tsnjamesduthie @BobWeeksTSN do their thing on @RBCCanadianOpen coverage. Who am I missing? Anyway, good stuff, guys.

What a day for finishes: French Open, Canadian Open. Trying to get outside all day. No chance.
