Just one week away from The Open Championship, the PGA TOUR and DP World Tour go across the pond to Scotland this week for the Genesis Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club. Nearing the end of the season, the TOUR has four co-sanctioned events with the DP World Tour over the coming weeks. The field is full of the very best with Jon Rahm being the only top-10 player in the world electing to sit out before the year’s final major. World No.1 Scottie Scheffler is among those top players in the field this week. He’ll feel confident in his chances after finishing in the top 5 in his last three starts and in the top 12 in his last 18 starts. Wins at the WM Phoenix Open and THE PLAYERS Championship, coupled with top-10 finishes in the first three majors of the year, will mean he’ll look to be in the running come Sunday. Defending champion Xander Schauffele returns this week. He’s gathered momentum recently with 10 straight top-25 finishes and the all-time lowest round at a major in last month’s U.S. Open. An in-form Rory McIlroy will also be teeing it up this week having claimed five top-10 finishes in a row, including his runner-up finish at the U.S. Open. Tommy Fleetwood, Patrick Cantlay, Viktor Hovland and Rickie Fowler will also like their chances in Scotland.

Very interesting discussion. MONEY, YES. MONEY, YES. MONEY YES!!!
Who is happiest right now? The LIV Players. Why? Because they now know that LIV has a future, the premium players ALREADY got more MONEY on CONTRACTS, they play fewer tournaments, AND, they can win more boatloads of MONEY every time they play, AND they are having more fun with everything surrounding the team concept!
Why are the PGAT players so unhappy? Because they didn't take the flyer and join LIV, didn't get the MONEY, got diddled by their leadership, divided the PGAT into haves and have-nots, force top players to work like Trojans, and, still have no contracts and financial security like the LIV players.
BTW, nobody mentions the caddies in all this. Last week Cam Smith's caddie got $400,00 + $35,000 for his work. The caddie for the guy who came in last got $12,000. Do you think these caddies are happier? Camp's caddie sure looked happier up there on the podium with Cam.
If the merger doesn't happen then I think more of the top players will JUMP at the chance to join LIV.
Golf is a life-long pursuit based on a disciplined approach to practice management. So is investing. In fact, I’ve started using golf as an analogy for how to construct portfolios and build financial plans – let’s examine the similarities:
The putter is hot
Rory is what Tom Watson was
Exactly the video we like to see . Go rory!
Didn’t Ben An shoot a 9 under ?
3 better than Rory ?
— oh that’s right , we only have reels for the poster boy Rory
And Riley, Detry and Harrington ?
– crickets 🦗
Ben An shot 9 under. Where is his video? PGA clearly doesn’t respect the competitors they don’t constantly push in videos
Ben An shot 9 under, wheres his clip? Probably why he hasnt won a major in 9 years because you guys are like stalkers! Let him be and focus on the merit of the day please!
Rory is such a good golfer!
So overrated
Rory is the greatest choke artist of all time
Where is the posting of An who made 9 under?????
Should have been 8 under those missed short putts, but still not bad effort.!!!
Seriously? You release a highlight for rory before the leader who is 9 under?
Let's go Rors
Do the players get roid tested??
Mcilroys nips give the game away!!
Obviously off cycle.
Great playing though
Go Rory!!!!!
And????? are we supposed to be excited that Mr. Bean looked like a pro-golfer????
Love the finesse this man has. Lovely polite gallery! So refreshing..
woo-hoo! tied for third!
Go Rory !!
What a player
