It's time to jump into the 2024 Genesis Scottish Open odds as The Renaissance Club hosts this week's PGA Tour event following Davis Thompson's breakthrough win at the John Deere Classic.

The Genesis Scottish Open is a co-sanctioned event between the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour, making it a significant tune-up to The Open Championship. The Renaissance Club, designed by Tom Doak in 2008, offers a modern take on a links course.

Defending Scottish Open champion Rory McIlroy is the betting favorite this week and looks to defend his title at +850 odds. McIlroy won last year's Genesis Scottish Open in dramatic fashion as he birdied the 17th and 18th holes to win by a single shot over Scotland's own Robert MacIntyre at 15-under par.

2022 Scottish Open winner Xander Schauffele has the second-shortest odds to win this week at +950 in North Berwick, Scotland.

2024 Genesis Scottish Open Odds

Rory McIlroy will make his first start since falling just short at the 2024 U.S. Open at Pinehurst No. 2 when he tees it up this week at The Renaissance Club in his title defense at the Genesis Scottish Open at +850 odds. In his last six starts on the PGA Tour, McIlroy has four top-four finishes, including two wins at the Wells Fargo Championship and the Zurich Classic of New Orleans.

In the Scottish Open last year, McIlroy gained strokes throughout the bag, and he has gained strokes on the field in all four major strokes gained categories (Off the Tee, Approach the Green, Around the Green and Putting) in each of his last five tournaments.

Xander Schauffele is just behind McIlroy on the outright Scottish Open odds this week as the American enters at +950 to win this tournament for the second time in three years after winning by a shot over Kurt Kitayama in 2022. Schauffele has been remarkably consistent in 2024, and his 11 top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour are five more than any other golfer outside of Scottie Scheffler, who has 13 top 10s this year.

Schauffele's tie for 42nd here last year was one of just two finishes in nearly two years, spanning 42 starts, where he has finished outside the top 40 of an event that he completed. His tie for 13th in his most recent start at the Travelers Championship snapped a streak of four consecutive top-10 finishes.

The other golfers in the field with outright odds of 25-1 or shorter at bet365 on Monday afternoon include:

  • Collin Morikawa (+1700)
  • Ludvig Åberg (+1700)
  • Viktor Hovland (+2200)
  • Tommy Fleetwood (+2200)

Some other notables in the field this week and their outright odds include Min Woo Lee (+3000), Max Homa (+7500), Jordan Spieth (+6000), Adam Scott (+10000) and Will Zalatoris (+10000).
