Tournament Structure for the Genesis Scottish Open<\/h2>\n \n\n
\n The Genesis Scottish Open takes place over the course of four days with 156 players<\/strong> teeing off on the 11th to the 14th of July<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
\n Players will play one round on each for the first two days in this 72-hole<\/strong> event. At this point, the leading 65 players<\/strong> (including any tied at 65th place) will go forward to the fourth and fifth rounds. In the event of a tie, we\u2019ll be treated to a nail-biting hole-by-hole playoff. <\/p>\n\n
\n The world-class Renaissance Club course was created by the renowned course designer, Tom Doak, retaining the original undulating features with plenty of penal rough that makes it a satisfying challenge. With the back tees stretching out at over 7,300 yards, and with a variety of tees measuring from 7,300 to 5500 yards, it allows all types of players a chance to experience the teeing grounds. <\/p>\n\n
\n You\u2019ll find a number of spectacular long par 4s<\/strong> with a good mix of varied par 3s and 5s<\/strong>. Being situated so close to the North Sea, there is often considerable wind<\/strong> to take into account. <\/p>\n\n
\n In 2019, the Renaissance attracted over 66,000 spectators, which represented the highest gate figures since the tour started moving to different venues in 2011. While Genesis Scottish Open tickets in 2024 are unlikely to reach those dizzy heights, we still expect a packed crowd for this summer showdown. <\/p>\n\n

Prize Money<\/h2>\n \n\n
\n The total prize fund for this year's event is $9 million,<\/strong> with $1.57 million <\/strong>going to the champion, and the rest being split between runners- up. The tour itself is co-sanctioned by the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour as part of their strategic alliance. With players from both camps taking part, the results will count towards the FedEx Cup, Race to Dubai order of merit, and the DP World Tour Rankings.<\/p>\n\n
Genesis Scottish Open Odds, Betting Tips, Promotions & Predictions<\/h2>\n \n\n\n The 2024 Genesis Scottish Open will take place between the 11th to the 14th of July<\/a> at the captivating Renaissance Club in North Berwick. <\/p>\n\n
\n Here are the latest odds<\/strong>, alongside exclusive tips<\/strong> and predictions<\/strong> designed to help you analyse the odds and to make the smartest bets possible. <\/p>\n\n

\n Scottish Open Betting Tips & Predictions 2024\n <\/h3>\n \n\n
\n The following represents what we think are the best value markets currently available for Genesis Scottish Open Betting. \r<\/p>\n\n
\n To be clear, we don\u2019t have any mystical insight. It\u2019s simply our opinion. These tips are shared to help you make your own predictions and implement your betting strategy.<\/p>\n\n
\n 1. Xander to win outright\n <\/h4>\n \n\n
\n It seems likely that this tournament will come down to the two most recent champions, Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele. The odds for both are close to neck and neck with the Irish ace being given a slight edge. \r<\/p>\n\n
\n However, we\u2019re going against the bookmakers here and saying that 2022\u2019s champion Xander Schauffele<\/strong> is most likely to win<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n
\n McIlroy is just coming off a disastrous US Open, where two missed short puts on the 16th and 18th greens handed the victory the Bryson DeChambeau. Immediately after, he announced he would be taking a break from the game. Xander comes into this contest much more positively, following a terrific season and Olympic glory. We think that momentum will just about give him the advantage here.\r<\/p>\n\n
\n 2.\tEach way bet ideal for both Rory and Xander \r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n
\n While we give our nod to Xander, this year has a fantastic field of players and if you\u2019re looking at converted probabilities, even favourite Rory McIlroy<\/strong> is only given an 11.8%<\/strong> chance of winning by the bookies. <\/p>\n\n
\n For a medium risk bet<\/strong> then, we think your best option is to go with an each way bet<\/strong> on either Rory or Xander. From bet365, and other top bookmakers, even your minimum option provides each-way winnings up to four places, and we think both will at least finish somewhere near the podium. <\/p>\n\n
\n 3.\tTop 5 finish for Tom Kim \r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n
\n Another golfer with excellent form in this particular tournament is 21-year-old Seoul native Tom Kim<\/strong> who finished third place in 2022<\/strong> and tied in sixth last year<\/strong>. Due to inconsistent form \u2013 mere weeks ago, he was cut during the Rocket Mortgage Classic \u2013 he isn\u2019t making our pick for favourite. But make no mistake, anyone capable of taking Scottie Scheffler down to the wire, as Tom Kim did in the Travelers Championship last month, can make any tournament\u2019s top five. <\/p>\n\n
\n 4.\tJustin Thomas to make the cut \r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n
\n He\u2019s had what many consider to be the worst season of his professional career, and therefore the odds for Justin Thomas to even make the cut are rather generous. Bet365 are offering 4\/11<\/strong> odds, which is an implied probability of 73.3%<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n
\n Considering that we\u2019re talking about a former World Number 1 here with two PGA championships to his name, with one being as recently as 2022, this might be the best value Genesis Scottish Open 2024 betting odds. He simply needs to find the quality he\u2019s known for once more, and we think he\u2019s more than capable of doing so. \r<\/p>\n\n
\n 5.\t1 stroke or more finish likely\r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n
\n When you have two neck and neck golfers as favourites, it can be easy to go for the dramatic playoff option when predicting the winning margin. However, we\u2019d suggest if you\u2019re backing either Rory or Xander, to go for the 1 stroke or more finish. With top tier talent, there\u2019s usually some space between the final scores, even with such closely matched abilities.<\/p>\n\n

Popular Genesis Scottish Open Betting Markets<\/h2>\n \n\n\n One of the reasons Genesis betting is so exciting is the huge selection of golf betting markets<\/strong><\/a> to pick from. Indeed, the finest golf betting sites<\/strong><\/a> can provide an extraordinary amount of choice on major golfing events. Trying to wrap your head around your options? Here\u2019s a close look at some of the most interesting and popular Genesis Scottish Betting odds markets.<\/p>\n\n
\n
\n
\n
Outright Tournament Winner<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n The simplest and most straightforward bet is on the player you expect to win <\/strong>on Sunday afternoon. With so many of the world\u2019s top players taking part, you might want to split or double your stake to cover the top performers, as opposed to focusing on a single winner. This is a very popular market, meaning all the top sportsbooks will offer a competitive price.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n
Hole-in-One Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n Just as it says in the title, a hole-in-one is where the ball goes straight into the hole<\/strong> from the tee. It\u2019s a rare shot, with appropriately high odds. Importantly, you can bet on this without having to name a player<\/strong>, making for a fun side bet.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n
First Round Leader Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n Here you're betting on whoever\u2019s at the top of the leaderboard<\/strong> once the first day is over, so your wager only applies to Thursday\u2019s gameplay. Very simply, if your pick is number one at the end of the opening day, you\u2019ll walk away a winner.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n
Top Nationality Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n With players of the same nationality competing, it\u2019s possible to bet on who will outperform their fellow countrymen. This isn\u2019t the same as nominating a winner from a particular nation. Rather, you\u2019re choosing the highest-placed player from a particular country<\/strong>.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n
Golf Match Bets<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n For this market, you'll be pitting two players against each other<\/strong>, either over a particular round or across the tournament as a whole, to see who has the lowest score. Considering the sheer number of golfers involved, this provides many of the Genesis Scottish Open best bets from a strategic perspective. You can look upon this as betting on mini-battles as opposed to the whole competition.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n
Top 10, Top 20 Finish Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n Simply put, you\u2019re betting on which players finish in the top places<\/strong>. This could be the top five, top 10, or top 20. These bets are easier to win as you\u2019re not trying to guess a single tournament winner. For example, it\u2019s enough if you believe Matt Fitzpatrick will finish in the top five or top 10.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
\n
\n
\n
Betting on The Cut<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
\n The \u201ccut\u201d refers to the elimination of the lower half of the field after the first two days of competition. It\u2019s a means of reducing the number of challengers going forward who\u2019ll play over the weekend. You\u2019re betting on who makes the cut or those who miss out.<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n
History of the Genesis Scottish Open<\/h2>\n \n\n
\n\n
\n\n
\n \n
\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n
1972<\/strong>

First Tournament<\/strong> \u2013 The inaugural Scottish Open was held at Downfield Gold Club in Dundee as part of the 1972 European Tour<\/strong>. England\u2019s Neil Coles<\/strong> claimed victory in a thrilling playoff against Brian Huggett, marking the start of what would become one of Scotland\u2019s premier golf tournaments.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n
1974<\/strong>

Cancelled<\/strong> \u2013 The first two tournaments were broadcast exclusively on ITV. However, when television coverage could not be arranged in 1974 the Scottish Open was cancelled and would remain so for over a decade.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n
1986<\/strong>

Revival<\/strong> \u2013 Brought back to life through a sponsorship deal with Bell\u2019s whiskey, the Scottish Open returned to the European Tour in 1986. The following year, it found a semi-permanent home at Gleneagles<\/strong>, where it remained until Bell\u2019s removed their sponsorship in 1994<\/strong>. The BBC<\/strong> broadcasted the event from 1987<\/strong> to 1993<\/strong>.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n
1990<\/strong>

First Double Champion<\/strong> \u2013 Welsh golfer Ian Woosnam<\/strong>, affectionately known by fans as \u201cWoosie\u201d, became the first person to win the tournament twice following an impressive showing at The King\u2019s Course (at Gleneagles). This cemented him as one of the \u201cBig Five<\/strong>\u201d generation of European golfers alongside Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo, Sandy Lyle and Bernhard Langar. While several athletes have claimed the crown twice, no one has yet achieved a third victory.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n
1997<\/strong>

Lock Lomond Era<\/strong> \u2013 The Lock Lomond World Invitation was first held in 1996 and took the place of the Scottish Open on the European Tour the following year. The two merged in 2001<\/strong>. It continued to be played at Lock Lomond Golf Club, a course renowned for its scenic beauty and challenging layouts, until 2010.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n
2011<\/strong>

Return to Links Courses<\/strong> \u2013 While Lake Lomond is undeniably charming, it didn\u2019t offer the ideal preparation for the Open Championship. That\u2019s why, in 2011, it returned to links courses starting with Castle Stuart Golf Links<\/strong>.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
\n
\n
\n <\/div>\n
\n
2017<\/strong>

Rolex Series Status<\/strong> \u2013 In 2017 the Scottish Open was included in the European Tour\u2019s prestigious Rolex Series, which provided higher prize funds and more ranking points, significantly elevating its status in the global golf calendar.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n

It\u2019s simply our opinion. These tips are shared to help you make your own predictions and implement your betting strategy.<\/p>\n\n \n 1. Xander to win outright\n <\/h4>\n \n\n \n It seems likely that this tournament will come down to the two most recent champions, Rory McIlroy and Xander Schauffele. The odds for both are close to neck and neck with the Irish ace being given a slight edge. \r<\/p>\n\n \n However, we\u2019re going against the bookmakers here and saying that 2022\u2019s champion Xander Schauffele<\/strong> is most likely to win<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n \n McIlroy is just coming off a disastrous US Open, where two missed short puts on the 16th and 18th greens handed the victory the Bryson DeChambeau. Immediately after, he announced he would be taking a break from the game. Xander comes into this contest much more positively, following a terrific season and Olympic glory. We think that momentum will just about give him the advantage here.\r<\/p>\n\n \n 2.\tEach way bet ideal for both Rory and Xander \r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n \n While we give our nod to Xander, this year has a fantastic field of players and if you\u2019re looking at converted probabilities, even favourite Rory McIlroy<\/strong> is only given an 11.8%<\/strong> chance of winning by the bookies. <\/p>\n\n \n For a medium risk bet<\/strong> then, we think your best option is to go with an each way bet<\/strong> on either Rory or Xander. From bet365, and other top bookmakers, even your minimum option provides each-way winnings up to four places, and we think both will at least finish somewhere near the podium. <\/p>\n\n \n 3.\tTop 5 finish for Tom Kim \r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n \n Another golfer with excellent form in this particular tournament is 21-year-old Seoul native Tom Kim<\/strong> who finished third place in 2022<\/strong> and tied in sixth last year<\/strong>. Due to inconsistent form \u2013 mere weeks ago, he was cut during the Rocket Mortgage Classic \u2013 he isn\u2019t making our pick for favourite. But make no mistake, anyone capable of taking Scottie Scheffler down to the wire, as Tom Kim did in the Travelers Championship last month, can make any tournament\u2019s top five. <\/p>\n\n \n 4.\tJustin Thomas to make the cut \r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n \n He\u2019s had what many consider to be the worst season of his professional career, and therefore the odds for Justin Thomas to even make the cut are rather generous. Bet365 are offering 4\/11<\/strong> odds, which is an implied probability of 73.3%<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n \n Considering that we\u2019re talking about a former World Number 1 here with two PGA championships to his name, with one being as recently as 2022, this might be the best value Genesis Scottish Open 2024 betting odds. He simply needs to find the quality he\u2019s known for once more, and we think he\u2019s more than capable of doing so. \r<\/p>\n\n \n 5.\t1 stroke or more finish likely\r\n <\/h4>\n \n\n \n When you have two neck and neck golfers as favourites, it can be easy to go for the dramatic playoff option when predicting the winning margin. However, we\u2019d suggest if you\u2019re backing either Rory or Xander, to go for the 1 stroke or more finish. With top tier talent, there\u2019s usually some space between the final scores, even with such closely matched abilities.<\/p>\n\n \n \n \n Visit bet365<\/span>\n VISIT BOOKIE<\/span>\n SEE OFFER<\/span>\n<\/a> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n \n Genesis Scottish Open Betting Promotions 2024\n <\/h3>\n \n\n \n Specific promotions for this event will become available closer to the start of the tournament.

Indeed, the finest golf betting sites<\/strong><\/a> can provide an extraordinary amount of choice on major golfing events. Trying to wrap your head around your options? Here\u2019s a close look at some of the most interesting and popular Genesis Scottish Betting odds markets.<\/p>\n\n \n \n \n Outright Tournament Winner<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n The simplest and most straightforward bet is on the player you expect to win <\/strong>on Sunday afternoon. With so many of the world\u2019s top players taking part, you might want to split or double your stake to cover the top performers, as opposed to focusing on a single winner. This is a very popular market, meaning all the top sportsbooks will offer a competitive price.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n \n \n \n Hole-in-One Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n Just as it says in the title, a hole-in-one is where the ball goes straight into the hole<\/strong> from the tee. It\u2019s a rare shot, with appropriately high odds. Importantly, you can bet on this without having to name a player<\/strong>, making for a fun side bet.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n \n \n \n First Round Leader Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n Here you're betting on whoever\u2019s at the top of the leaderboard<\/strong> once the first day is over, so your wager only applies to Thursday\u2019s gameplay. Very simply, if your pick is number one at the end of the opening day, you\u2019ll walk away a winner.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n \n \n \n Top Nationality Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n With players of the same nationality competing, it\u2019s possible to bet on who will outperform their fellow countrymen. This isn\u2019t the same as nominating a winner from a particular nation. Rather, you\u2019re choosing the highest-placed player from a particular country<\/strong>.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n \n \n \n Golf Match Bets<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n For this market, you'll be pitting two players against each other<\/strong>, either over a particular round or across the tournament as a whole, to see who has the lowest score. Considering the sheer number of golfers involved, this provides many of the Genesis Scottish Open best bets from a strategic perspective. You can look upon this as betting on mini-battles as opposed to the whole competition.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n \n \n \n Top 10, Top 20 Finish Betting<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n Simply put, you\u2019re betting on which players finish in the top places<\/strong>. This could be the top five, top 10, or top 20. These bets are easier to win as you\u2019re not trying to guess a single tournament winner. For example, it\u2019s enough if you believe Matt Fitzpatrick will finish in the top five or top 10.<\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n \n \n \n Betting on The Cut<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n The \u201ccut\u201d refers to the elimination of the lower half of the field after the first two days of competition. It\u2019s a means of reducing the number of challengers going forward who\u2019ll play over the weekend. You\u2019re betting on who makes the cut or those who miss out.<\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n History of the Genesis Scottish Open<\/h2>\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n <\/div>\n \n 1972<\/strong> First Tournament<\/strong> \u2013 The inaugural Scottish Open was held at Downfield Gold Club in Dundee as part of the 1972 European Tour<\/strong>. England\u2019s Neil Coles<\/strong> claimed victory in a thrilling playoff against Brian Huggett, marking the start of what would become one of Scotland\u2019s premier golf tournaments.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n \n 1974<\/strong> Cancelled<\/strong> \u2013 The first two tournaments were broadcast exclusively on ITV. However, when television coverage could not be arranged in 1974 the Scottish Open was cancelled and would remain so for over a decade.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n \n 1986<\/strong> Revival<\/strong> \u2013 Brought back to life through a sponsorship deal with Bell\u2019s whiskey, the Scottish Open returned to the European Tour in 1986. The following year, it found a semi-permanent home at Gleneagles<\/strong>, where it remained until Bell\u2019s removed their sponsorship in 1994<\/strong>. The BBC<\/strong> broadcasted the event from 1987<\/strong> to 1993<\/strong>.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n \n 1990<\/strong> First Double Champion<\/strong> \u2013 Welsh golfer Ian Woosnam<\/strong>, affectionately known by fans as \u201cWoosie\u201d, became the first person to win the tournament twice following an impressive showing at The King\u2019s Course (at Gleneagles). This cemented him as one of the \u201cBig Five<\/strong>\u201d generation of European golfers alongside Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo, Sandy Lyle and Bernhard Langar. While several athletes have claimed the crown twice, no one has yet achieved a third victory.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n \n 1997<\/strong> Lock Lomond Era<\/strong> \u2013 The Lock Lomond World Invitation was first held in 1996 and took the place of the Scottish Open on the European Tour the following year. The two merged in 2001<\/strong>. It continued to be played at Lock Lomond Golf Club, a course renowned for its scenic beauty and challenging layouts, until 2010.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n \n 2011<\/strong> Return to Links Courses<\/strong> \u2013 While Lake Lomond is undeniably charming, it didn\u2019t offer the ideal preparation for the Open Championship.
