Thomas and Fitzpatrick set for Genesis Scottish Open field
Updated: May 14, 2022
Major champion Justin Thomas and seven-time DP World Tour winner Matt Fitzpatrick are the latest global stars to confirm their participation in the Genesis Scottish Open, the third Rolex Series event of the 2022 season.
Fans can buy tickets now to see the growing stellar field - which also includes reigning Open Champion Collin Morikawa, three-time Major winner Jordan Spieth, Scotland’s number one Robert MacIntyre and defending champion Min Woo Lee – compete at Renaissance Club from July 7-10, 2022.
Former World Number One Thomas has an impressive CV that includes the 2017 US PGA Championship, two World Golf Championship titles and two Ryder Cup appearances. The 29-year-old returns to the Renaissance Club at the start of a new era as the historic event is co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and PGA TOUR for the first time and boasts a new title sponsor in Genesis, the luxury automotive brand from South Korea.
Thomas said: “I have a lot of great memories from playing in Scotland at different points in my career, and this is shaping up to be an exciting summer with the Genesis Scottish Open at the Renaissance Club, followed by The 150th Open in St Andrews. I’ve always said that I want to win around the world, and I would love to build on my previous results in this event and pick up a first Rolex Series title.”
For Rolex Series winner Fitzpatrick this will be a ninth consecutive appearance at the Genesis Scottish Open. The 27-year-old came agonisingly close to lifting the trophy for the first time last season, reaching the play-off against Thomas Detry and champion Min Woo Lee.
Fitzpatrick said: “I would love to add to my Rolex Series victories at the Genesis Scottish Open, particularly after coming so close last year. It’s a tournament that has been ever-present on my schedule throughout my professional career, and it’s exciting to see it co-sanctioned by both the DP World Tour and PGA TOUR this season. I’m looking forward to getting back to the Renaissance Club this summer and heading on to St Andrews the following week.”
