Golf: Three Golfers that can win 2025 Genesis Scottish Open Scottie Scheffler (X)

The world’s best golfers are now in Europe. Players are now getting ready for links style golf prior to the British Open a week from now. Here are the three golfers we like the most at the Scottish Open. It just so happens this week that we are going with the three best golfers in the world. 

Scottie Scheffler

You may wonder why I am high on the world number one this week when he has never been in the top five at the British Open before. The reason is because of the exceptional round of golf the last time Scheffler played in Europe. Scheffler entered the final round of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris four strokes back of Xander Schauffele and John Rahm. Then Scheffler birdied half the holes on the golf course to win the most prestigious golf tournament in a multi-sport event in the world. The odds of Scheffler winning the Scottish Open on Sunday is a remarkable +360.



Rory McIlroy

The native of Holywood, Northern Ireland (+750) has also had great success in Europe. McIlroy won the 2014 British Open, and has finished in the top six in seven British Opens. McIroy has also won 19 times on the European Tour, and won the 2023 Scottish Open. There he posted a four round score of -15 and beat Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre by a stroke.


Xander Schauffele

Like McIlroy, Schauffele (+2000) is a Scottish Open champion and British Open champion. Both of Schauffele’s wins came in single digits under par. At the 2022 Genesis Open, Schauffele had a winning score of -7 and beat Kurt Kitayama by a stroke. Then at the 2024 British Open, Schauffele had a winning score of -9 and beat Billy Horschel and Justin Rose by two strokes.
