Rory McIlroy couldn’t hide his disdain for the conditions at the Scottish Open. “The greens are so s–t,” McIlroy said Sunday on a hot mic as he missed a putt wide during his final round at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland.

Rory McIlroy came within a whisker of his second Genesis Scottish Open title, but ultimately finished two strokes behind a surprising winner.

Rory McIlroy's time off allowed him to fully process his Masters win, and his week at the Scottish Open showed he's ready for what's next.

Moving Day at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland, saw World No. 2 Rory McIlroy make a charge to the top of the leaderboard.

For many, it's the final tune-up ahead of the last major on the PGA Tour's 2025 calendar. For others, Sunday in Scotland means the top three golfers not already in the British Open field will earn their way into some tee times at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.

After outdueling Masters champion Rory McIlroy head-to-head to win for the second time on the PGA Tour and earning his first berth in the forthcoming British Open at Royal Portrush, Chris Gotterup struggled for what seemed like the first time all day.
