Open Championship golfers and the British Open favorite to win ahead of the year's final major at Royal Portrush

Scottie Scheffler is halfway to the career grand slam. How does he think about the remaining two majors? In wedges, of course.

Bloor, a 29-year-old Englishman, qualified for his first major championship. And while at Royal Portrush, the man ranked 825th in the Official World Golf Ranking is hoping to get a game with the World No. 1. And a cash game at that!

The next two weeks mark a pivotal stretch of international golf for the PGA Tour, with back-to-back events taking place overseas. This week, several top names are returning to action at the Genesis Scottish Open in Scotland.

By skipping the John Deere Classic, Scheffler joins several top players opting for rest in the lead-up to The Open, one of the most demanding and prestigious events on the golf calendar. The Texas native remains a top contender in the FedExCup standings and has already locked in his place among the season’s standout performers.

No. 1 is obvious, but who comes after Scheffler in our ranking of the 25 best players on the PGA Tour ahead of the final major of the season?

Scheffler is skipping this week’s John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run in Illinois. His decision comes as he looks to rest and reset ahead of the year’s final major, The Open Championship set to take place from July 18 to 21 at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.
