The 2026 Genesis Scottish Open field is headed by Matt Fitzpatrick, Robert MacIntyre, Rory McIlroy and more.

This tournament started with 156 players, and a cut was made this week after two rounds to the top 65 players and ties. Every professional player in the field is paid for completing the event, but how much each player is paid at the 2026 Genesis Scottish Open from the correct 2026 Genesis Scottish Open full-field payout is based on their finish in this event.

The 2026 Genesis Scottish Open prize money payout is set ahead of the event. In events with a cut, the PGA Tour will add money to the purse, with the PGA Tour paying out money from the purse if more than, in this case, 65 professionals make the cut to ensure all players are paid.
