The Genesis Scottish Open 2024 is underway, and Ludvig Aberg is leading the standings on Sunday. He has a two-stroke edge over Robert MacIntyre. The tournament is taking place at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick, Scotland. Aberg is aiming for the second PGA Tour victory in his career.

Meanwhile, MacIntyre, the local favorite, hopes to be the first Scottish champion in 25 years. Other noteworthy golfers including Rory McIlroy, Adam Scott, Collin Morikawa , and Sahith Theegala are within striking distance of the lead.

The final round will be an exciting clash between Aberg and MacIntyre, who will be partnered together for the last 18 holes. The competition is intense, with many top players still in the mix. McIlroy, the previous year’s winner, is five strokes behind but still has a chance to claim the title.
