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.
