Amanda Balionis reflected on her week at RBC Canadian Open
While the 2025 US Open unfolds at Oakmont Country Club, Balionis is currently enjoying some downtime. The CBS Golf reporter part of the broadcaster's team at the PGA Tour's RBC Canadian Open last week (June 5-8).
After the event, Balionis shared a reflection from TPC Toronto, and wrote that she would be taking a short break after the Canadian Open. She captioned her Instagram post:
"We had an incredible National Open. It's time for a week off."
Amanda Balionis was also full of praise of the two golfers who competed for the title at the RBC Canadian Open.
"Canada? You never disappoint. Today was another memorable final round with a very worthy champion. It was so fun to watch Ryan Fox and Sam Burns battle it out for four playoff holes in front of HUGE crowds. Fox will tell you it took him longer than expected to settle in here on the PGA TOUR, but after a dramatic win a month ago, the Kiwi is playing free and is now a multiple time winner."
"Sam Burns is playing out of his mind right now. Once again the LSU talent put himself in the mix and if I’m you, I’m snagging him early for any US Open pools you might be in."
Added to that, CBS has slated her return for the Travelers Championship at TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut, from June 19 to 22. The Signature Event will be followed by coverage of events including the Rocket Mortgage Classic and the John Deere Classic on the PGA Tour.
