Watch: Robert MacIntyre has a heartfelt conversation with his mom on facetime after his RBC Canadian Open win

Robert MacIntyre won the 2024 RBC Canadian Open at the Hamilton Golf and Country Club, finishing 16-under par. He beat Benjamin Griffin, who finished 15-under par, and Victor Perez, who finished 14-under par.

After his maiden PGA tour victory at the RBC Canadian Open 2024, Robert MacIntyre was spotted speaking to his mom, Carol MacIntyre. MacIntyre greeted his mother at the start of the video, which was posted on the PGA Tour's X account.

She replied by saying:

"Winner Winner Chicken Dinner."

MacIntyre laughed at his mother's statement and said, "Some Caddie." The golfer was hinting at his father Dougie MacIntyre, who served as his caddie at the RBC Canadian Open. The father-son duo enjoyed an experience that will undoubtedly live on in their memories.

Further, he told his mom that she probably won't see her husband until next week. MacIntyre said:

"First time you have been quiet in your life Mom... Guess what Mom? That might be the mortgage paid off... I love you and leave you. I will speak to you later."
