Event Preview

The Renaissance Club will host important action on the PGA Tour this weekend, as the Scottish Open presents a perfect opportunity for players to build momentum ahead of the start of The Open Championship. The field will play across 7,237 yards, with a purse of $9 million up for grabs.

The ultra-consistent Scottie Scheffler will head the betting, as he bids to follow up his recent second at the Travelers Championship. Scheffler has struggled for wins despite his consistency this term, with his sole success coming at The American Express in January.

Rory McIlroy’s patchy form will make him a decent price this weekend, but the Masters champion won this event back in 2023, and was just two strokes off the lead 12 months ago. Reigning champion Chris Gotterup should be respected after his professional display last year.

Wyndham Clark will be a big price this weekend, but his consistency has already led to wins at the CJ Cup and U.S. Open in recent weeks. Tommy Fleetwood has also thrived on the Tour this season, finishing in the top 15 on nine of his 14 appearances.

Scottish Open Picks

It could be a successful weekend for Matt Fitzpatrick in Scotland. The Englishman is a three-time winner on the PGA Tour in 2026, and his record at this weekend’s course is exceptional, finishing in the top ten on three occasions since 2021.
