The PGA Tour's Genesis Scottish Open begins on Thursday in North Berwick, where the top players on tour will compete at the Renaissance Club.

Robert MacIntyre won the 2024 Gensis Scottish Open. The Scottish native finished 18 under par, beating second place by 1 stroke. MacIntyre returns to defend his homeland championship. He is currently ranked 14 on the Official World Golf Rankings.

World number one Scottie Scheffler is in town, as is Masters champion Rory McIlroy and new US Open champion JJ Spaun. MacIntyre will defend his title in front of a partisan home crowd and he will be in good company from the off, grouped with Scheffler and last year’s runner-up Adam Scott on the first day.

While still the Open tune-up it's long been, this week's Genesis Scottish Open will feature the toughest field of the year aside from the PGA Championship, U.S. Open and The Players.

Whisper it, but the weather forecast for this week’s Genesis Scottish Open at the Renaissance looks pretty decent. In fact, it could become so warm, this correspondent may have to tie an unprecedented fifth knot in the handkerchief that I plonk on my fevered forehead.
