The Genesis Scottish Open is scheduled to begin on Thursday, July 10, at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland. Spieth, who injured his neck during the opening round of the Travelers Championship, is set to skip the event.

On Friday, July 4, the tentative field for the Genesis Scottish Open was announced, and Spieth's name was notably absent from the list.

For the uninitiated, Spieth had teed off at TPC River Highlands and played 12 holes before he began feeling discomfort in his neck. Since then, he has missed two consecutive events.

Spieth's participation in the Open Championship is still unconfirmed, but fans are hoping it’s only a precautionary measure. The former World No. 1 has a solid record at the fourth major of the season. He hasn't missed a cut in 11 starts and has recorded eight top-25 finishes. He’s converted five of those into top 10s, including a win in 2017 and a runner-up finish in 2021.
