How to watch the Canadian Open 2025 online from anywhere using a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to watch this tournament, a VPN can enhance your privacy and security while streaming. By encrypting your internet traffic, a VPN prevents your provider from throttling your connection and adds protection when using public Wi-Fi, keeping your devices and login credentials secure.
VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and are commonly used for online privacy and security. However, some streaming platforms may restrict VPN usage for accessing region-specific content. Before using one, review the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s setup instructions carefully to maintain a secure connection. Be aware that some streaming services may detect and block VPN traffic, so it’s advisable to confirm whether your subscription permits VPN use.

Quick tips for streaming the Canadian Open2025 using a VPN
- With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming may vary.
- If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the «search for city or country» option.
- If you’re having trouble getting the tournament after you’ve turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
- All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location.
- And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
