Can Rory McIlroy get back to winning ways at Genesis Scottish Open 2025?

The latest edition of the Genesis Scottish Open will commence at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland on Thursday, July 10. The event, falling a week ahead of The Open Championship, will feature a stacked field headlined by World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and No. 2 Rory McIlroy. The top two ranked players lead the odds list.

Scheffler is the outright favorite to clinch the winner’s paycheck from the Scottish National Open’s $9,000,000 purse. Meanwhile, the five-time Major champion, who clinched his long-awaited career Grand Slam at the Masters in April, is right behind. According to SportsLine, the No. 1 golfer enters the event with 36-1 odds while the Northern Irishman starts with 75-1.

McIlroy comes into the Scottish Open from a T6 finish at the Travelers Championship, which was after a T19 at the U.S. Open. The Major outing came a week after a forgettable missed cut at the RBC Canadian Open, his first of the season.

McIlroy’s last win this year, the Masters, was his third of the PGA Tour season after the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and The Players Championship. He finished inside the top 20 in nine out of the eleven events he played in this year. With the calendar's final Major starting in a week in his home country, he will be eyeing a strong outing in Scotland this week.
