The Scottish Open has become a significant event on the golf schedule ever since it began serving as a partner tournament between the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour. That has allowed the best players from both tours to come together for a chance to play links golf in preparation for The Open Championship a week later.

The final round of the Genesis Scottish Open is set to begin on Sunday, with Rory McIlroy and Chris Gotterup holding a two-stroke lead over the field.
