The Fortinet Cup Championship is an annual professional golf tournament played in Canada. It is the season ending event on the PGA Tour Americas, having previously served the same function on the PGA Tour Canada, commonly known as the Canadian Tour. The PGA Tour Americas replaced the PGA Tour Canada and the PGA Tour Latinoamérica in 2024.
The tournament was founded in 2002 as the Bay Mills Open, hosted at the Bay Mills Resort in Brimley, Michigan, United States, and became designated as the Canadian Tour's "Players Championship" the following year. In 2006, the tournament moved to Ontario, Canada as the new Canadian Tour Championship.[1] It has since remained in Ontario, and adopted different names under various title sponsors.
In 2015, it was an event reserved for those in the top 60 on the PGA Tour Canada money list. All players in this tournament retain PGA Tour Canada status. It is also a final chance to finish in the top five on the Order of Merit to earn Korn Ferry Tour cards or at least improve their position for qualifying school.
During the COVID-19 pandemic and travel restrictions into Canada, the PGA Tour organised substitute tours in the United States that served as the replacement tours for PGA Tour Canada. The 2020 substitute was known as the LocaliQ Series Championship in Duluth, Georgia. The 2021 substitute, the Forme Tour Championship, was held in Huntsville Golf Club in Dallas, Pennsylvania. Both served as the PGA Tour's official substitutes.
