As the top golfers in the world look to prepare for the Open Championship, they must first end with a strong performance at the Scottish Open.

We saw a year ago how much momentum can help out at this part of the season. Phil Mickelson finished in first place at the 2013 Scottish Open before parlaying that into a victory at the 2014 British Open, earning his fifth career major title.
