F-16: Top player in the 2025 Race to Dubai on the DP World Tour, not otherwise exempt, as of May 19
The Englishman will make his U.S. Open debut by virtue of being among the top player in the 2025 Race to Dubai on the DP World Tour, not otherwise exempt, as of May 19. Canter turned professional in 2011 after claiming the Spanish Open Amateur. He bounced between the European Challenge Tour and the Pro Golf Tour before gaining his European Tour (now DP World Tour) card in 2015. He has actually garnered his card four times via Q-School. He finally broke through for his maiden win on the circuit at the 2024 European Open in Germany. He registered his second title in the 2025 Bapco Energies Bahrain Championships in February. His other professional victory came on the Jamega Pro Golf Tour in 2015. His best finish in a major is a tie for 17th in the 2023 Open Championship. Canter also played for two seasons on LIV Golf before leaving the circuit in 2024. In 2010, Canter represented England in the World Amateur Team Championship, and helped England win the 2010 European Team Championship.
