IT'S THE HOOK OF GENESIS

National open is on the up

- By Craig Swan

BOB MacINTYRE’S triumph in the Genesis Scottish Open last year added to the growing list of unforgettable Renaissance finishes.

As the East Lothian venue prepares for the latest staging of the elite event this week, the tournament's title sponsor is invested in facilitating more magical memories and scaling even higher peaks.

World No.1 Scottie Scheffler, defending champion MacIntyre and fellow former Scottish Open winners Rory Mcllroy, below, and Xander Schauffele are among the headline acts for the hotly-anticipated 2025 staging of the £8million cracker on the coast.

Once more, a special field of elite golfers is converging to give Scottish fans a treat and Genesis brand advisor Graeme Russell is adamant the drive for better year on year will never cease.
