Matthew Fitzpatrick Looking For Consecutive Wins
Matthew Fitzpatrick will tee it up for the first time since winning the US Open.

Sungjae Im Is A Wild Card Heading Into The Scottish Open
This will be the first start for Sungjae Im (back) since the U.S. Open. Im was supposed to tee it up in Hartford at The Travelers Championship, but he was forced to withdraw due to back pain.

Marc Leishman Looks For Consistency At The Scottish Open
It has been an up-and-down stretch of golf for Marc Leishman. He has missed the cut in four of his last eight events and has not posted a top-10 finish since January. The main issue for the Australian has been his around-the-green game. He has lost strokes around the greens in five of his last... Read More
Tommy Fleetwood Dependent On Tougher Conditions
Tommy Fleetwood's ball-striking has not been consistent enough for him to find himself regularly contending for wins, particularly on easier courses that require a multitude of birdie opportunities. His short game is the best aspect of his skill profile, and that is often emphasized when conditions get tougher and greens are harder to hit. His... Read More
Justin Thomas Looking To Capitalize On Revitalized Putter
Justin Thomas heads to the Scottish Open refreshed after teeing it up last at the US Open a few weeks ago.

Cameron Young A Bit Unknown Heading Into Scottish Open

Mito Pereira A Good Bet To Bounce Back This Week
Mito Pereira has missed the cut in his last two tournaments. The Chilean did mount a furious rally at the Travelers before coming up just short of making the cut. The back to back bogeys did not help and that plagued him at the US Open as well. Pereira can hit greens well (ranks 11th)... Read More
