The Scottish Open at Renaissance Golf Club in North Berwick, Scotland, is this week’s stop on the PGA Tour schedule. The 156-man event is co-sanctioned by the PGA Tour and DP World Tour.

Xander Schauffele is the defending champion at the tournament after defeating fellow American Kurt Kitayama by one stroke in last year’s edition.
