Robert MacIntyre continued his strong form at the Scottish Open, gaining more than 9.6 strokes on approach, resulting in a T3 finish. This marked his third finish of T15 or better in his last four events, and he looks to keep it rolling at The Open. Through six appearances, MacIntyre has recorded three top-10 finishes, including a T7 last year at Royal Portrush. This year's event at Royal Birkdale will reward precision and accuracy, two areas that have been strengths throughout MacIntyre's career. He ranks 20th off the tee (+0.446 strokes per round), ninth in putting (+0.544), and 54th in driving accuracy. While his approach numbers have been a concern this season (102nd, -0.041), he has gained in the category in three of his last four events after struggling with his irons earlier in the year. MacIntyre is trending in the right direction heading into the final major of the season, and at $8,000 on DraftKings, he carries plenty of upside at a mid-range price.

After recording his third win of the season at the John Deere Classic, Chris Gotterup followed it up with another strong performance at the Genesis Scottish Open, finishing T11. He now turns to The Open, where he finished solo third in his tournament debut last year. Gotterup has also been impressive in major championships this season, recording finishes of T24, T10, and T43 in the first three majors. This year's event at Royal Birkdale will reward precision and accuracy, two areas that can create some concerns for Gotterup. He ranks 46th on approach (+0.313 strokes per round), 10th off the tee (+0.573), and 27th in putting (+0.376). The biggest question marks come around the greens (-0.014, 87th), scrambling (78th), and driving accuracy (132nd). At $8,500 on DraftKings, Gotterup brings loads of upside, but he will need to keep his driver in the fairways to contend once again.

Justin Thomas has put together a rock-solid season, recording eight top-25 finishes and only one missed cut through 13 events. He now turns to The Open, a tournament where he has struggled throughout his career. In nine appearances, Thomas has only one finish inside the top 30, coming in 2019 at Royal Portrush. This year's event at Royal Birkdale will reward precision and accuracy, areas where Thomas has put up mixed results. He ranks 55th in driving accuracy, 68th in putting (+0.089), and second around the greens (+0.532), but his iron play has been a concern, ranking 104th on approach (-0.053). At $7,500 on DraftKings, Thomas brings upside, but his history at this event makes him a true boom-or-bust option.

Since finishing T12 at The Memorial, Adam Scott has struggled to find his form again, recording a missed cut and finishes of 65th and T66 in his last three events. He now looks to get back on track at The Open, where he has recorded 10 top-25 finishes in 25 appearances. Success at Royal Birkdale will rely on precision off the tee, elite approach play, and strong putting on the small 5,200-square-foot greens. Scott ranks seventh on approach (+0.610 strokes per round), 56th off the tee (+0.153), and 90rd in driving accuracy, but his short game remains a concern, ranking 107th in putting (-0.148) and 101st around the greens (-0.082). At $6,500 on DraftKings, Scott offers some upside through his ball striking, but he will need improvement around and on the greens to make the weekend.
