In either event, tournament objects should include the Canadian flag on the 18th pin.
The other 17 flags are the sponsors' logos...there might be some legal issues about using them and sponsorships don't last forever.

For those who may not know, the "RBC" that sponsors the Canadian Open (as well as a couple of other tournaments and players) originally stood for "Royal Bank of Canada"...Canadian banks have gone out of their way to eradicate any link to Canada and have "modified" their names for the international market.

Just some last minute input before we go "live".
The same thing applies to any other Canadian course tournament (like St. George's), since the Canadian Open is the only PGA event we're likely to see up here.

I'm looking at the video and it looks like Hole 7 gives you a view of the bridge. Just chop down a couple of trees behind the green.

Color of river in video seems to be reddish brown or could say muddy waters that is different than LeWaw posted earlier that he was considering using.

Jimbo, for this course, I tried to create something as close to reality as possible
I've seen a lot of pictures for this hole, and never seen the bridge when we'are on the terrain :surrender:
as long as we don't play golf with a drone :laugh:

Gene,the color of the river depends on the time when the image or film was made or the date, season etc...
All I want for this river is something photo-realistic
I spent too much time finding something decent, I never seen a perfect river texture in Links ( in close view of course ) , when the river is far, it's different.
I gave my best for this one, and I realy don't want to spend more time on it.
Sorry... :surrender: :surrender: :surrender:

On the 6th hole in regular play I sliced my drive into the river (unintentionally) but I was able to play from the river. That will need to be fixed.
