The 39 year old, who has recorded 13 professional wins worldwide, said: “I have had a good run at the Scottish Open over the past few years. I think it is a great way to tune up for The Open. I’m a fan of tennis and I know people always get ready for Wimbledon by playing Queens and similar events on grass.
“The Open is such different golf to what we play in the States, so it’s good for us to go over and get a week on links golf and have some tough competition. The Scottish Open has been at some fantastic golf courses and I’ve really enjoyed my last few years playing the tournament.”
The Aberdeen Standard Investments Scottish Open is returning to Gullane for the first time since 2015, when Kuchar recorded his best finish to date, this time in another American 1-2 alongside winner Rickie Fowler. He has played the Scottish Open seven times during his career, recording three top tens.
Kuchar said: “I had a go a few years ago and lost to Rickie Fowler. Then I had a nice finish last year as well, so I’ve been on a good couple of runs, and certainly my Open performances have been better for it.
“The fans over in Scotland are fantastic. I’ve always enjoyed my visits there, the golf courses are great, the fans are knowledgeable and they’re excited to see the best in the world play.
“I always look forward to a couple of weeks over there to play some good golf.”
With entertainment, children’s activities and food and drink outlets showcasing local produce, all complementing the world-class golfing action on Scotland’s Golf Coast, The Scottish Open is a perfect day out for all the family.
