Royal Troon (Facility) British Open Open Rory McIlroy Bryson DeChambeau The United States

The 2024 British Open is underway at Royal Troon as the best players in the world battle both the world-class golf course and the elements.

Entering the week, world No. 1 and Masters champion Scottie Scheffler was the betting favorite at +450. He’s joined in the field by PGA Championship winner Xander Schauffele, U.S. Open winner Bryson DeChambeau and world No. 2 Rory McIlroy, among others.

Royal Troon is a par-71 golf course measuring 7,385 yards.

This week’s winner, on top of being crowned the Champion Golfer of the Year, will earn $3.1 million of the $17 million purse and 700 FedEx Cup points.
