Three more major champions commit to Genesis Scottish Open

The quintet will be part of another stellar field for the $9 million Rolex Series event at The Renaissance Club in East Lothian from 10-13 July, with defending champion Bob MacIntyre and American ace Max Homa also having been announced.

World No 4 Morikawa tied for fourth last season and said of his return: “The Genesis Scottish Open holds good memories for me, as part of that exciting year in 2021, when I went on to win The Open and the Race to Dubai.

“I had another positive week at Renaissance Club last year, and I’m looking forward to getting back to Scotland this summer.”

Fitzpatrick, the 2022 US Open champion, will be making his 12th consecutive appearance in the tournament.

“The Genesis Scottish Open, as a Rolex Series event in the Home of Golf, is always a week I look forward to,” said the Englishman.

“I’ve had good results there in the past, and a recent win in Scotland to build on, so it will be great to tee it up again this summer.”

Double major champion Thomas returns once again to the country where he made his first start as a professional at the 2013 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.

“Scotland has been part of my career since the beginning, so it’s fun that I have the chance to come back every season,” said the American.

“The whole Genesis Scottish Open experience is always enjoyable, and I’ve had some good results in the past, so I’m looking forward to the week again this year.”
