Clark is in scintillating form, capping a stellar season with a one-shot victory over four-time Major winner Rory McIlroy at Los Angeles Country Club, just over a month after claiming his first PGA TOUR title.

The 29-year-old will join an exciting field for the Rolex Series event at the Renaissance Club from July 13-16, which includes eight of the top ten players in the world, headlined by World Number One Scottie Scheffler as well as McIlroy, Patrick Cantlay, Viktor Hovland, Xander Schauffele, Matt Fitzpatrick, Max Homa and Jordan Spieth.

Clark triumphed over 2022 Genesis Scottish Open champion Schauffele to win the Wells Fargo Championship by four strokes in May, with his U.S. Open victory giving him two wins in four starts, in addition to five further top tens in the 2022/23 PGA TOUR season.

He will tee it up in Scotland’s national Open for the second time, following a tied 16th place finish last season.

Clark said: “It’s been a whirlwind few weeks and an amazing season so far, all coming together in LA a few weeks ago. I’m looking forward to keeping things going over the summer and getting back to the Renaissance Club for the Genesis Scottish Open will be a big part of that.”

The 2023 Genesis Scottish Open field also includes Major winners Shane Lowry, Justin Rose, Adam Scott and Justin Thomas, European Ryder Cup stars Tommy Fleetwood and Tyrrell Hatton, 2015 champion Rickie Fowler, PGA TOUR winners Sam Burns, Im Sungjae and Séamus Power and Scotland’s number one, Robert MacIntyre.

The Genesis Scottish Open is co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and PGA TOUR, counting on both the Race to Dubai Rankings in Partnership with Rolex and the FedExCup, and boasts Genesis, the luxury automotive brand from South Korea, as title sponsor. Genesis title-sponsor two tournaments on the PGA TOUR’s 2022-2023 schedule, with Jon Rahm triumphing at the Genesis Invitational at The Riviera Country Club in February.

The Genesis Scottish Open benefits from the continued commitment of the Scottish Government, managed by VisitScotland, and retains its place in golf’s global calendar the week ahead of The Open as part of these agreements through to 2025.

Fans are encouraged to buy tickets soon, with the last chance to buy at pre-event prices and save up to £10 on single day tickets, and £40 on season tickets ending on Monday July 3. A range of Genesis Scottish Open ticket options are available to purchase here
