Rory McIlroy odds on Scottish Open win before Open Championship
@Source: mirror.co.uk
The golfing world will turn its gaze towards North Berwick as The Renaissance Club plays host to the much-anticipated Genesis Scottish Open. This prestigious event comes hot on the heels of The Open Championship at Royal Portrush and is sure to provide plenty of thrills and spills. With a whopping $9 million in prize money up for grabs and a line-up that boasts eight of the globe's top ten golfers, this tournament, co-hosted by the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, promises to be a spectacle worth tuning in for. Scottie Scheffler , the world's number one golfer, is expected to shine after a season of impressive performances, including his triumphant win at the PGA Championship. He's not the only big name to watch out for – Rory McIlroy is back on the links after completing his career Grand Slam with a Masters victory in April. Xander Schauffele, last year's Open Champion and a previous Scottish Open victor, is another crowd favourite. And let's not forget Scotland's own Robert MacIntyre, who'll be looking to replicate his heart-stirring victory from 2024 under the watchful eyes of his home crowd. The Renaissance Club, crafted by renowned designer Tom Doak, offers a quintessential links golf experience with its coastal winds, natural dunes, and challenging final holes. The 13th "stadium hole", perched high above the Firth of Forth, adds an extra layer of drama to the game. For players still hoping to qualify for The Open, this tournament represents their last chance. The top three finishers who are not already exempt will secure their spots at Royal Portrush. Priced behind the favourite Scottie Scheffler, the bookies believe McIlroy will be in the mix in the top five at least as he is priced at 10/1 best price with Ladbrokes. The Masters winner has a very good run of form in recent years at the Scottish Open winning it in 2023 as well as securing a fourth-place finish last year. The bookies seem relatively consistent in terms of pricing McIlroy at 9/1 with bet365 , Unibet , Betfred and Sky Bet all but a few of the bookmakers on the market pricing the Career Grand Slam winner as the second favourite to win the warm-up tournament ahead of next week's all important Open Championship. 18+ | Gamble responsibly | gambleaware.org | Odds subject to change 18+ | Gamble responsibly | gambleaware.org | Odds subject to change | Odds supplied by Sky Bet If you are on the lookout for the latest free bet offers, then look no further.
