The ever-popular Scottish Open will take place this week as the golfing world gears up for the final major of the year.
The 154th Open takes place at Royal Birkdale from July 16, but first, we are heading back to The Renaissance Club for the perfect warm-up act.
Chris Gotterup held off Rory McIlroy and Marco Penge to win the DP World Tour’s Rolex Series Event last year.
The American, who also won last week’s John Deere Classic with stunning nine-birdie final round, will return to defend his title but will be up against 2023 Scottish Open champion McIlroy and reigning Open winner Scottie Scheffler.
Being on the eve of The Open, this North Berwick tournament always has a glittering field and we should be set for another thriller on the links.

Scottish Open 2026: Course details
The Renaissance Club is the centre-piece of Scotland’s East Lothian golf coast.
It has been the permanent home of the Scottish Open since 2019 following events at Dundonald Links, Gullane and Castle Stuart.
The course, located between the world-famous Muirfield and North Berwick golf clubs, will play to a par 70 and a new maximum yardage of 7,282 yards.
The course has been rerouted for the first time this year with the opening hole now behind the old par 5 10th.
The layout will start with the traditional 10th to 16th holes before switching back to the old 8th and 9th.
The tenth hole will then be the old 1st and the back nine will play to the former 7th hole before returning to the traditional two closing holes.
The change has been made in the hope of ‘creating a more compelling closing stretch for both players and spectators’.
The par 3 6th hole – called The Thistle – is one of the best in Scotland and will now play as the 15th.

“I’ve had a great start to the season so far and I can’t wait to get back to the Renaissance Club to defend my title in July.”
McIlroy added: “It’s always an honour to compete in a national open, and I’m excited to be back at the Scottish Open this summer.
“Winning in 2023 created some great memories, and I’m looking forward to building on my strong performances at The Renaissance Club.”
Scheffler said: “I always enjoy coming to the Scottish Open and taking on the challenge of links-style golf as part of an exciting couple of weeks in the UK.
“The tournament always has a strong field, and the Scottish fans help to make it a fun week.”
