MacIntyre has his eyes on a rare Scottish double in golf
Associated PressTROON, Scotland — Any other year, Robert MacIntyre would have wasted little time coming across his native Scotland for the British Open to begin preparations for the final major of the year. He smiled before adding, “I think we’ve done a good job of that.” MacIntyre was scheduled for a Monday afternoon press conference. 16 in the world and raised hopes of a Scot winning the British Open in Scotland, something that has happened just twice in the last 100 years of golf’s oldest championship. My job is to go out there, fight as hard as I can, try my best, and hopefully get in a position where I can just have a chance.” MacIntyre is finally ready to move on and see if he can land a rare double — the last player to win the Scottish Open and a British Open in Scotland in the same year was Phil Mickelson in 2013.
