“It doesn’t get better than a Sunday like this. The best in the world battling it out where the game began… and it’s @chrisgotterup who gets it done. I may be biased as a fellow Northeasterner, but man was it fun watching the young Jersey kid figure out links golf and take down a world-class field, including going toe-to-toe with 🌍 #2 Rory McIlroy. This is just the beginning for the big hitter, and the emotions that poured out afterwards tells you everything you need to know about what this game, and win, means to him.”

After the win, Gotterup said (via ASAP Sports):

“I just hung in there tight and tried to keep it together. After my start this week, really just struggled, and then I found something on Friday. Today, I knew it was going to be a grind and yesterday was a grind, too…it's awesome. I can't wait to see everyone and then I'm playing The Open next week.”

Gotterup won the Genesis Scottish Open with a 15-under in total. He fired 68 in the first round with two birdies on the front nine and two on the back nine. He followed that with a 61 in the second round with six birdies on the front nine and three on the back nine. The third and fourth rounds saw 70 and 66 with two and six birdies, respectively.
