World number one Scottie Scheffler will get an early look at Royal Birkdale after his remarkable streak of 78 consecutive made cuts ended at the Scottish Open.
His exit from The Renaissance Club marks his first missed cut in four years, a setback days before his Claret Jug defence. Scheffler needed to hole a chip from off the front of the par-three ninth green, his final hole, to meet the predicted one-under-par cut line.
