Genesis Scottish Open Odds 2024: Another Victory For MacIntyre

A week before the fourth and final major of the year, a co-sanctioned event between the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour took place in North Berwick, Scotland. The Genesis Scottish Open is one of five Rolex Series events on the European Tour and a major preparation for PGA Tour players to gear up for the Open Championship the following week. The 2023 Genesis Scottish Open winner, Rory McIlroy, opened as the favorite in the Genesis Scottish Open odds. However, Ludvig Aberg quickly took the crown, but a miserable Round 4 knocked him off the throne. In the end, it was the Scottish born Robert MacIntyre grabbing the victory, as he finished at 18 under.

Current Favorites to win the Genesis Scottish Open

Odds provided by FanDuel – accurate as of July 14

Rory McIlroy (+1600 at FanDuel sportsbook)

Hopefully it’s a refreshed and rejuvenated McIlroy that we see this week. The last images of McIlroy we have are of him coming up short with the putter on the last few holes of the 2025 U.S. Open. Now ready to defend his title in a tournament that has never had a repeat champion in its history, McIlroy will look to create his own class company, if he can repeat the task this week. With no Scottie Scheffler, McIlroy seems like a good player to back, as he looks to break his over 10-year drought at a major championship.

Xander Schauffele (+35000 at Caesars Sportsbook)

The 2022 Genesis Scottish Open champion returns, as Xander Schauffele gets set to travel across the pond, and take on the Renaissance Club. With 11 top-10 finishes in 16 events this year, 2024 has been an incredible season for Schauffele. Highlighted by a win at the PGA Championship, the year has been filled with first page finishes on leaderboards. This week should be no different for Schauffele, as he prepares for the final major of the year and tries to hoist the second major trophy of the season and of his career. In search of PGA Tour win number nine, when considering the Genesis Scottish Open odds, Schauffele could be the one to place a wager on.

Collin Morikawa (+1200 at BetMGM sportsbook)

*Odds were +1800

Collin Morikawa returns to Europe and looks to build on what has been a terrific season. However good the season has been, it’s been a winless one for the six-time winner on the PGA Tour, and two-time major champion. Six top-10 finishes in 16 events have Morikawa ready to claim his first victory of the season. Sitting sixth in the official world golf rankings, Morikawa is looking to make a big splash across the pond. With three top-five finishes in his last five events, there’s a lot of value in Morikawa’s Genesis Scottish Open odds.

Ludvig Aberg (-134 at BetRivers sportsbook)

*Odds were +1600

Since his arrival on the PGA Tour, Ludvig Aberg has done nothing but impress. A win at one of his first events at the RSM Classic last November has seen him shoot up the official world golf rankings list to fourth in the world. Like Morikawa, Aberg has six top-ten finishes this season in just 14 events, with a pair of runner-up finishes to go with it. Now a week away from hopefully being in contention in a major championship, Aberg looks to lay down a great performance in Scotland. Aberg is certainly one to keep an eye on in the Genesis Scottish Open odds.

Tommy Fleetwood (+2000 at FanDuel sportsbook)

*Odds were +6600

Maybe the best golfer to never win on the PGA Tour, Tommy Fleetwood looks to hit the winners circle for the first time, as the tour arrives in Scotland. He’ll have plenty of support from the fans though, as he looks to challenge for a top spot that has eluded him for years. Sitting 11^th in the official world golf rankings, Fleetwood has three top-10 finishes to his credit this year, along with top-26 finishes in his last six events. Which showcases that it’s just a matter of time now before the seven-time European Tour champion breaks through with his first win on the PGA Tour.

Genesis Scottish Open Longshot

Matthieu Pavon (+500000 at DraftKings sportsbook)

*Missed cut

2024 has been a breakout season for Matthieu Pavon. With a win at the Farmers Insurance Open in January, Pavon burst onto the PGA Tour scene with an earlier season victory. Ranked 21^st in the official world golf rankings, Pavon has impressed many on his rise to stardom. With four top-10 finishes in 14 events, Pavon certainly shouldn’t be slept on this week as he returns to Europe to play. Tied for 16^th at the Travelers Championship his last time out and a solo fifth place showing at the U.S. Open the week before that, have Pavon in great form heading to Scotland. Pavon should be considered as a solid Genesis Scottish Open sleeper pick.

Genesis Scottish Open betting trends

Since there are only five other times that the Genesis Scottish Open has been held at the Renaissance Club, it’s hard to find so many trends. However, one thing that stands out is that year in and year out the tournament is close. Every season since 2019, the tournament has gone to a playoff, or the winner has won by a single stroke. Look for the tournament to be tight once again and look to make a bet on it going to a playoff or by someone to win by exactly one stroke.

Genesis Scottish Open debutants

Cole Rueck (+500000 at Caesars Sportsbook)

*Missed cut

2024 Genesis Scottish Open qualifier Cole Rueck is making his Genesis Scottish Open debut after winning the 2024 Collegiate Showcase in February. The University of Boise State product was the 2023-24 Mountain West Individual Champion and the 2023-24 All-Mountain West Selection. Expectations should be tampered for Rueck as the spotlight will be shining brightly on him as he tees it up with the world’s best.

How to read Genesis Scottish Open betting odds

Reading golf betting odds is just as easy as reading betting odds on any other sport. For example, say you liked McIlroy to win this week, but you didn’t like the very low odds on him. If you wanted, you could bet that McIlroy wins the tournament by three strokes or more. If you like him to beat up on the field, then bet $10 to win $180 at +1800.

How to bet on the Genesis Scottish Open

There are several ways to bet on the Genesis Scottish Open this week. One bet that stands out, however, is that McIlroy, Viktor Hovland and Fleetwood will all finish in the top-10. If you risked $10 and all three come in the top ten at +2420, it would pay $242.
