Tom Kim Wins Scottish Open With Bogey-Free 64

The victory gives Kim fresh momentum ahead of next week’s Open at Royal Birkdale.

Overview

  • Tom Kim closed with a bogey-free 6-under 64 on Sunday to finish 17-under and win the Genesis Scottish Open by two strokes over Min Woo Lee.
  • The win ends roughly a three-year title drought for the 24-year-old, marks his fourth PGA Tour victory, and improves his world ranking and major exemptions.
  • Fog forced a suspension of the third round on Saturday and left many players to finish that round on Sunday, producing marathon days and disrupted tee times that shaped the leaderboard.
  • World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler missed the cut on Friday, snapping a 78-event streak of made cuts and leaving Matt Fitzpatrick with the longest active streak at 28 events.
  • Johnny Keefer, Michael Thorbjornsen and Victor Perez earned the final spots into next week’s Open at Royal Birkdale and a reported DraftKings payout of about $4.01 million to a long-shot bettor on Kim added a high-profile off-course note to the week.
