Kira Dixon Faces Travel Turmoil Before the U.S. Open
CBS golf reporter Kira Dixon’s coverage of the 2025 RBC Canadian Open took a dramatic turn after her flight out of Toronto was abruptly canceled, leaving her stranded just days before she’s due at Oakmont Country Club for the highly anticipated U.S. Open. Dixon, who worked alongside Amanda Balionis in Toronto, shared her frustrations and uncertainty with fans on Instagram, joking about Toronto’s reputation as “the worst airport in North America” and expressing hope she’ll still make it to Oakmont in time.
Race Against the Clock for Broadcast Teams
With the U.S. Open teeing off June 12 at Oakmont, the pressure is mounting for broadcast teams to be on-site and ready. Dixon’s unexpected travel nightmare comes at the worst possible time, as the world’s best golfers prepare for one of the year’s most challenging majors. Fans and colleagues are now watching closely to see if Dixon will beat the travel odds and arrive before the action begins.

The field is stacked, featuring defending champion Bryson DeChambeau, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, former champions Rory McIlroy and Jon Rahm, and rising stars like Matthieu Pavon and Ludvig Åberg. As Oakmont hosts its 10th U.S. Open, anticipation is sky-high for a tournament that could see either a repeat champion or a fresh name enter the history books.
