The RBC Canadian Open will continue this weekend without some notable names.
After 36 holes at Osprey Valley’s north course at TPC Toronto, PGA Tour rookie Ben James is out in front.
James, 22, is making his first start since turning professional this week and is on 10-under, one clear of Sam Burns, Jackson Suber, Haotong Li, Jesper Svensson and Keith Mitchell.
The defending champion, Ryan Fox, is also in contention alongside former LIV Golf recruit Brooks Koepka.
England’s Tommy Fleetwood also cannot be discounted.
