Ahead of the Open Championship, Rory McIlroy scored a dramatic win at the Genesis Scottish Open on Sunday with birdies on the final two holes.
McIlroy finished at 15-under 265 and moved past Jon Rahm to No. 2 in the world.
An and Lingmerth received a consolation prize by earning spots in the British Open, awarded to the leading three players not already exempt. The final spot went to Nicolai Hojgaard , who will join twin brother Rasmus at Royal Liverpool. He was 201 yards from the pin, dead into the wind, a perfect 3-iron for him — except that McIlroy decided to replace his 3-iron with a 2-iron for the windy week.
