Where to watch
The Scottish Open 2026 will stream in the US on Paramount Plus and ESPN Plus.
The Scottish Open returns to the Renaissance Club this week, with the tournament once again boasting one of the strongest lineups outside of the four majors.
Bringing together most of the big names from both the PGA Tour and DP World Tour, this weekend's action in North Berwick provides players a last chance to qualify for the year's final major, the Open. It takes place next weekend at the Royal Birkdale Golf Club.
Chris Gotterup is back to defend the crown he won last year, following a gripping battle against Rory McIlroy, who also returns to take on the demanding, rugged coastline course as the bookies' favorite. The star-packed field also includes world No.1 Scottie Scheffler, who's looking to improve upon his eighth-place finish at last year's tournament. And Jon Rahm will be appearing in his first PGA Tour event outside of majors since his controversial switch to LIV Golf three years ago.
