The PGA TOUR heads to Scotland this week for the Genesis Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club. This is the third straight year the PGA TOUR will co-sanction the event with the DP World Tour, with around 75 pros from both tours competing. Rory McIlroy returns to defend his title and looks to become the first ever back-to-back winner of the event. The Northern Irishman has claimed T15 or better in his previous six starts on the PGA TOUR, including victory at Quail Hollow two months ago. Xander Schauffele also tees it up this week. The 2022 Scottish Open champion has 11 top-10 finishes in 16 events this year, as well as claiming his first major at the PGA Championship. Collin Morikawa is also in Scotland this week. In seven events since claiming T3 at the Masters, he’s made T16 or better, including T4 at the PGA Championship. He also finished solo third here in 2022 and T6 last year. Others to look out for include Viktor Hovland, Ludvig Åberg, Tommy Fleetwood and Justin Thomas.
