Many of the world’s top golfers are traveling to Scotland this week for the 2025 Genesis Scottish Open, one week before the fourth major of the year. The 2025 Genesis Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland, gives American golfers the opportunity to adjust to potential jet lag while playing in conditions that could be similar to next week’s major. Both Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy are a part of the 2025 Genesis Scottish Open field, which creates longshot opportunities for others competing against the top two-ranked golfers in the world. Which of those longshots demonstrates the best value for 2025 Genesis Scottish Open picks on betting sites?
Viktor Hovland is competing in his fourth straight Genesis Scottish Open. The 27-year-old recorded a win at the Valspar Championship and secured a third-place showing at the U.S. Open. According to the latest 2025 Genesis Scottish Open odds, Hovland is 35-1 to finish on top of the leaderboard. Hovland is making his fourth career start at the Scottish Open, but he’s never finished better than T-25 in his first three starts. Hovland has shot under par in just five of his past 19 rounds, but the model likes Hovland as a longshot contender this weekend.
Now that the 2025 Genesis Scottish Open field is locked in, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and revealed its longshot betting picks. New users have the opportunity to take advantage of the latest DraftKings promo code, BetMGM promo code, bet365 bonus code and Fanatics Sportsbook promo code.
Matt Fitzpatrick (45-1)
The 30-year-old Englishman finished T-6 at his Genesis Scottish Open debut in 2022, and he’s made the cut in two of his three events at The Renaissance Club. He’ll have more of a home-course advantage over many others in the 2025 Genesis Scottish Open field with many local fans likely supporting their European golfer when he tees off. Fitzpatrick finished T-8 at the Rocket Classic on June 29 for his second top-eight result over his last five events.
He has only two career PGA Tour victories, but Fitzpatrick has been one of the top international golfers with eight international victories, including three since 2020. He was once the No. 1-ranked amateur in the world, and at 45-1 odds at DraftKings, he’s a top value in the model’s latest projections. The latest DraftKings promo code offers new users $150 in bonus bets instantly after their first $5 wager as the place to back Fitzpatrick in 2025 Genesis Scottish Open bets.
Viktor Hovland (35-1)
Hovland withdrew during the final round of the Travelers Championship on June 22 with a neck injury, a week after finishing third at the U.S. Open. His Valspar Championship began a stretch of eight straight made cuts, including the Travelers Championship as he made the cut before his final round withdrawal. Hovland, ranked No. 12 in the world, is expected to return to the course this weekend after taking the last two tournaments off to rest his neck for the Genesis Scottish Open and the ensuing Open Championship.
The 27-year-old is fourth on the PGA Tour in strokes gained: approach to green, while ranking 10th in approach from greater than 200 yards away and 18th in proximity with his second-shot success integral to his positioning on the leaderboard. He’s finished in the top 25 in five of the last seven tournaments he’s started and completed, and with Hovland not far removed from his 2023 championship season which included three tournament victories, the model projects value in the Norwegian. FanDuel Sportsbooks is offering the best odds at 35-1, and with the latest FanDuel promo code, new users can earn $150 in bonus bets if their first $5 bet wins.
Robert MacIntyre (33-1)
MacIntyre had an emotional victory at last year’s Genesis Scottish Open with the Scotland native able to win in his home country, letting out a roar after sinking a birdie on the 18th hole in the final round to defeat Adam Scott by one stroke. It was his second tournament victory of the year and his career, but by far his most meaningful. MacIntyre nearly had his first major win this year, finishing second at the U.S. Open on June 15 after shooting 2-under-par in a challenging final round. Whether it’s the pressure of a major or a putt to win in your home country, MacIntyre has been impressive early into his PGA Tour career.
Before winning last year’s Genesis Scottish Open, MacIntyre finished second at the tournament in 2023 as he’s dominated at The Renaissance Club at the professional level. He’s No. 14 in the world and will have the majority of the fans at the Scottish club behind him this weekend. New users can get $150 in bonus bets with a $5 wager using the latest bet365 bonus code.

The helmet stripe, outlined in black, as well as in a thinner set of white lines, also features faint, mini fleur-de-lis.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementThe primary fleur-de-lis logo is gold — as opposed to its usual black color — with the thick, Sharpie-like black outline we're accustomed to seeing.

Deion Sanders sends prayers to Shedeur amid growing rumors the Browns may cut him

Once projected to go in the top 10 picks, his stock fell dramatically until he was selected at No. 144 overall in the fifth round by the Cleveland Browns.The selection immediately raised eyebrows, as the Browns already had three quarterbacks on the roster: veteran Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, coming off a stint with the reigning champion Philadelphia Eagles, and fellow rookie Dillon Gabriel, who had been drafted well before Shedeur. Another one?Shedeur Sanders had no idea what was coming during awkward live moment A roster loaded with talentIn addition to Deshaun Watson, who is expected to miss the entire 2026 season but will still collect the $230 million guaranteed contract he signed after leaving Houston, the remaining quarterbacks face intense competition.

Caitlin Clark was back. The crowd inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse let her know it, rising to their feet as theIndiana Fever guard checked in for her first game after missing five straight with a groin strain. But just minutes into the first quarter, things took an unexpected turn.Clark, bringing the ball up the court, took light contact from a Valkyries defender and lost her footing.

Shohei Ohtani already knows what’s wrong with the Dodgers and proposes the solution to get out of the crisis
One of MLB's most dominant powerhouses, the Los Angeles Dodgers, find themselves mired in their worst losing streak in five years, a stunning collapse that has rocked the franchise. With a record that still keeps them at the top of the National League West Division (56-37), the five-game losing streak has set alarm bells ringing, and their star player, Shohei Ohtani, has not hesitated to point out the problem with a frankness that resonates throughout the team.The team's decline has been abrupt and painful. First, they succumbed in a three-game sweep to the Houston Astros, with resounding scores such as an 18-1 that included ten runs in a single inning, a 6-4 and a 5-1. The nightmare continued in Milwaukee, where the Milwaukee Brewers dealt them 9-1 and 3-1 defeats. In this five-game span, the Dodgers have been outscored by […]
Katie Taylor vs. Amanda Serrano 3: What’s at stake for the fighters and the sport of women’s boxing
In this renaissance era of women's boxing, where headlining bouts became commonplace involving some of the best and most marketable female practitioners in the sport's history, one rivalry has stood out above all. On Friday night, Irish sporting hero and undisputed junior welterweight champion Katie Taylor (24-1, 6 KOs) will take on boxing's only nine-division champion, Amanda Serrano (47-3-1, 31 KOs), in the third (and likely final) meeting between two all-time greats and future Hall of Famers. The fight, which emanates from the hallowed halls of New York's Madison Square Garden, will also headline an all-female card (8 p.m. ET), which airs live to subscribers on Netflix, and promises to be just as exciting as their first two meetings, both of which ended with a Taylor victory, disputed scorecards and a nomination for fight of the year."Those two are two all-time greats […]
Red Bull fires Christian Horner: How team principal’s ouster could affect Max Verstappen, Mercedes, Ferrari
The Formula 1 paddock was rocked Wednesday by the news that Christian Horner, the longtime CEO and team principal of Red Bull Racing, has been fired after a 20-year run that featured many race wins and championships with drivers like Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen. Horner's dismissal comes after a sharp decline in Red Bull's performance from its heights in 2023, as Verstappen's performance has fallen off from its championship heights and the team's second car has gone through multiple drivers while struggling to be competitive.Considering the gravity of the news and the depth of his resume as an F1 team principal, Horner's firing is sure to have a ripple effect that extends well beyond the headlines of the gap between last weekend's British Grand Prix and the Belgian Grand Prix later this month. The aftershock of Red Bull's change […]
