You Oughta Know: Amateur du Toit eyeing history

Brandt Snedeker leads Dustin Johnson and Canadian amateur Jared du Toit by one at the RBC Canadian Open. Here's what You Oughta Know heading into Sunday at Glen Abbey.

• The 21-year-old du Toit is trying to become the first amateur to win a PGA Tour event since fellow Arizona State Sun Devil Phil Mickelson won the Northern Telecom Open in 1991.

• As if that isn't pressure enough, the British Columbia native is also out to become the first Canadian to win his national open since Pat Fletcher in 1954.

• He'll play in the final pairing with Snedeker, who won this event in 2013 and is a combined 38 under par in 11 career rounds at Glen Abbey.
