As anticipation builds for the 2025 Genesis Scottish Open, Scottie Scheffler has emerged as the top betting favorite, narrowly surpassing Rory McIlroy. Both players look to elevate their games, captivating fans and analysts ahead of the prestigious tournament.
Johnnie Waring has achieved a remarkable feat by setting a new 36-hole record on the European Tour after scoring rounds of 63 and 65 at the Omega European Masters in Switzerland.
The 24-year-old golfer from England started strong by birdieing his first two holes on Thursday and continued to impress by gaining five shots on the front nine. He added three more birdies on the back nine, culminating in a spectacular round of 63.
His stellar performance continued with a superb round of 65 on Friday, featuring seven birdies and only two bogeys, propelling him to 14 under par and establishing a commanding four-stroke lead over his closest competitor.
Waring’s 36-hole total score of 128 now stands as the lowest ever recorded on the European Tour, surpassing the previous record set by Ross Fisher in the 2018 Nedbank Golf Challenge.
As he heads into the weekend rounds, Waring carries a comfortable lead, setting his sights on clinching his first-ever European Tour victory
