We preview this week's Canadian Open at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley, breaking down everything from course setup to championship expectations.

After officiating more than 1,700 NHL games, nine Stanley Cup Final-clinching contests, Olympic gold medal games and countless historic moments, McCreary reflects on why now was the right time to share the stories behind one of hockey's most distinguished careers.
