Genesis Scottish Open
Genesis Scottish Open takes place Jul 8 - 11, 2027 at The Renaissance Club (expected, the week before The Open) in North Berwick, United Kingdom. The dress code is Smart casual with genuinely windproof layers - the East Lothian coast is exposed and cold even in July. Flat comfortable shoes for links walking. Typical cost ranges from 350 to 1800 EUR per person.
Co-sanctioned by the PGA Tour and DP World Tour and staged at The Renaissance Club on the East Lothian coast, this is the last serious links preparation before The Open. The mixed field pulls major champions from both tours, which makes it one of the strongest non-major weeks of the year. The Firth of Forth backdrop and the wind coming off it define the scoring.

How to attend
Grounds tickets are sold in advance online, with under-16s free when accompanied by a paying adult and practice and weekday tickets cheapest. Park-and-ride shuttles run from North Berwick and Edinburgh, and the coastal rail line is the easiest approach. Confirm the 2027 dates once the schedule is published, as the event is always slotted the week immediately before The Open.
The tournament's old web address is now an empty parked page and no 2027 ticket page has been published yet - the dates are only confirmed once the schedule for the week before The Open is set.
Insider tip
Pair it with The Open the following week and base yourself in East Lothian for both - the coastal strip from Gullane to North Berwick has more championship links per mile than anywhere on earth, and several are playable by visitors between rounds.
