The 2026 Genesis Scottish Open is set for a thrilling conclusion as the sun sets at the Renaissance Club in Scotland with a whole host of big names still in contention.
Names like Tom Kim, Matt Fitzpatrick and Min Woo Lee are surely in the best position to go on and win, but Rory McIlroy is among the chasers who are looking to spoil the party.
On the line over the final few holes are three exemptions into The Open Championship at Royal Birkdale and one place at The Masters in 2026 for the winner. Oh, and there's also, a huge winner's check as well.
Join us for all of the key updates as they happen below.
GENESIS SCOTTISH OPEN LEADERBOARD
UPDATES FROM...
DOOR NOT COMPLETELY CLOSED
Well then. Kim's birdie try and the 14th does slide by the right and the gap remains two. That could be huge for the chasing pack with Lee and Fitzpatrick about to take this hole on themselves...
HEAVY HANDED FROM KIM
The par-4 14th is a drivable one at 328 yards. Kim's tee shot was pretty good, but it required him to bump a chip into an up slope and hope it released towards the flag.
The first part happened, but Kim's ball just scuttled on a little more than he'd have liked and this is no given for birdie. The chasers will hope his next putt slides on by.
Elsewhere, Keefer makes his par to stay three back.
INCHES AWAY
Fitzpatrick rolls his putt end over end at the 13th from around eight feet, but it's on the wrong line and stays above ground. Fitzpatrick looks, as you can probably imagine, slightly irked at that.
NO GIMME FOR KEEFER
Keefer sends his tee shot at the par-3 15th to the back of the green before whacking his birdie try out to the right. That's certainly not a gimme, either, and he can't afford to drop a shot at this stage.
NO CIGAR
It's a perfect weight from Lee, but he misses to the left after over-borrowing down the slope.
FLAG SURROUNDED
There could be even more positive momentum arriving for Lee now after he floats a lovely wedge over the top of the flag at the 13th. It's maybe 20 feet away, but that's a good chance for birdie.
Fitzpatrick's approach is even better, though, and he's around 10-12 feet away now. A couple of birdies would make Tom Kim sweat a little, no doubt.
NO LUCK AT 13
Tom Kim's wedge into the 13th is a little long and his birdie putt isn't that close either. But he posts the par putt home and walks on to the 14th with a two-shot advantage still.
LEE INTO SECOND
Min Woo Lee could be the man to put the pressure on Tom Kim now. He calmly rolls his birdie putt into the centre of the hole from three feet and we all hear that extremely satisfying rattle of golf ball on plastic cup. Lee up to 14-under.
EAGLE FOR MACINTYRE
But there's no such trouble for Robert MacIntyre! The Scot reads that same putt brilliantly and slams in a superb eagle after that excellent DOD shot just now. He's into the top-10.
Fitzpatrick, however, remains T2nd after his birdie putt rolls around the edge of the hole but stays out.

TOUGH PUTT TO READ
The final group are on the green, but it's a large putting surface and there's a significant drop to go down between them and the hole.
Fitzpatrick is certainly not guaranteed a birdie now after his effort trickles on slightly, and even Lee might be a touch nervous, too.
NO GOOD FROM NAKAJIMA
Another nearly man rolls up as Keita Nakajima sends a sprawling birdie putt towards the hole, only for it to pull up just short. He remains at 13-under with four holes to play.
DOD ALERT
It might not have been MacIntyre's day, but that is some shot. He takes driver off the deck and fires a low runner into the 12th green from around 300 yards. Eagle chance coming up.
Following on, Fitzpatrick and Lee crunch 3-woods onto the dance floor as well. The Englishman probably has the best look for eagle, mind.
THREE AHEAD
Tom Kim does it! He calmly and confidently rolls in a birdie putt at the par-5 12th to reach 16-under. If he pars his way home, there is almost no chance anyone roars past him. Start carving the trophy!
CRUEL
Johnny Keefer was one part-roll away from moving within one of the lead. His birdie try at the par-4 13th was tracking and it even rolled once more right at the end when it looked to have stopped, but it still wasn't enough! That is so tough.
BIRDIE CHANCE
Tom Kim is trying to take advantage of the final par 5 out here with birdies at a real premium, as I've mentioned. From 101 yards, the Korean clips a wedge over the flag and it spins back to about 10 feet. His lead could be three strokes very shortly.
Back on the tee, Min Woo and Fitzpatrick have munched their drives tight down the right and might well be able to reach in two into a cold and tough breeze.
TOUGH CONDITIONS
It's cold and windy out there and that's making it difficult to pop the ball close. Even still, Min Woo Lee's approach into the 11th would have been disappointing after sitting in the perfect position off the tee. Nonetheless, his birdie putt is sublime and leaves the Australian a tap-in for par.
GO JOHNNY GO
And here's another one joining the party. Johnny Keefer rolls in a right-to-lefter at the 12th and he reaches 13-under, two behind Tom Kim who's just lashed his drive down the same hole.
On the flip side, Matt Fitzpatrick has just hit a shocker off the tee. He pulled a low snapper into the left rough, just past a fairway bunker. That may well take birdie out of the equation.
MCILROY SIGNS FOR A 64
What a final round from McIlroy, but it won't be enough to win after a horrible third round 73. A six-under 64 should secure him another top-10, but it could and should have been so much better.
LEE STAYS ALIVE
Speaking of top recovery shots, Min Woo makes an incredible up-and-down to save par at the 10th.
GREAT RECOVERY
Min Woo Lee had found a green-side pot bunker at the 10th and his ball was slightly buried. But he recovers the situation well and will have a chance of escaping with a par. It's not a great chance, but it's a chance.
One hole ahead, Tom Kim chips to the hole's side after sending his second from one side of the green t'other. Thanks to a missed birdie try from Fitzpatrick, which was a very long way out, the Korean will stay two ahead.
NAKAJIMA INTO T2ND
The Japanese pro taps in at the par-5 12th and moves up to 13-under alongside Lee and Fitzpatrick. He was excellent on the DP World Tour last term and is now showing what he can do against the best the PGA Tour has to offer.
WHAT'S HAPPENED SO FAR?
Just to bring you up to speed a little bit, the final round was completed earlier this morning and it was Robert MacIntyre, Matt Fitzpatrick and Min Woo Lee all tied at the top through 54 holes.
However, while Fitzpatrick and Lee have remained near the top, it's been a much tougher day for MacIntyre and he's tumbled down the leaderboard.
While it has been difficult to chain lots of birdies (or even find them full stop), Rory McIlroy has been on something of a charge and is currently T5th on 12-under (-6 today) - although he's on the 18th and will require a fair few mistakes from his rivals if he is to win.
WELCOME
Hello and welcome to Golf Monthly's coverage of the 2026 Genesis Scottish Open final round at The Renaissance Club.
Tom Kim has just rolled in a mid-range birdie putt at the 10th, consequently doubling his advantage at the top, while the leaders have just begun their final descents.
Matt Fitzpatrick and Min Woo Lee are on 13-under and will be hoping for a little more traction after the turn on what has largely been a tough day scoring wise.
