Scottish Open start and finish times change due to key weather update as Sunday gates to open later
Tee-times altered for the final round of the tournament Genesis Scottish Open chiefs have been forced to change the start times for Sunday's final round due to forecasted haar. With dense sea fog in the area in the morning and evening, tee times for day four have been adjusted. Just as on the opening two days, there will now be a two-tee start from the first and 10th etween approximately 11.30pm and 1.40pm. The final putt is expected to be at approximately 7pm with changes also made to the entry times for the huge crowd set to attend. Gates will now open one hour later than previously advised at 9am. The FanZone, including Fringe by the Tee stage and catering outlets, will also be open from 9am. On Saturday, play with the cut-field of 80 for the weekend, got underway at 8.50am with Justin Thomas and Bob MacIntyre leading the groupings. Two years ago, the final day times were brought forward due to forecast bad weather with Rory McIlroy getting the better of MacIntyre in an epic finale. Crowds have piled into The Renaissance over the course of the tournament with Saturday's action a complete a sell-out. A record attendance is expected across the week at the event co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and PGA TOUR, with the capacity of 23,000 reached for day three. Rory Colville, Genesis Scottish Open Championship Director, said: 'The Genesis Scottish Open has continued to grow every year, with the stars of global golf gathering at Renaissance Club, and an increased fan experience, including the Fringe by the Tee stage in the Fan Zone and the Sixth Hole Stadium Experience. 'We're looking forward to a fantastic weekend of golf and entertainment, and welcoming our best ever crowd to the event.' Saturday at the Genesis Scottish Open also includes a headline set from Grammy-nominated, Brit Award-winning artist KT Tunstall on the Fringe by the Tee stage. Fans will turn out in their droves again for the final day, but the adjustment of timings will mean a slight tweaking of plans for those attending the event to see the conclusion and the 2025 winner crowned.

Mic drop: Rio Ferdinand leaves TNT Sports for ‘new chapter'
FRAZZLED FERDINAND In the preliminaries before kick-off between Aston Villa and Paris Saint-Germain at Parc des Princes last month, TNT Sports landed something of a coup. Having got celebrity Villa fan Prince William to agree to a pre-match interview, Rio Ferdinand and Ally McCoist were dispatched to ask His Royal Highness The Duke of Cornwall and Cambridge for his thoughts on how the game might unfold. While both former footballers have reached an age where they no longer have forelocks worthy of the name left to tug, Rio was so impressed with William's knowledge of gegenpressing, xG and heat maps that he issued a stark warning to the heir to the throne. 'Do not go into a punditry job because I could be out of the game,' he joked, as those armchair viewers the length and breadth of the country who are forced to pay top dollar for TNT subscriptions if they want to watch European football dared to dream. Advertisement While there is no evidence to suggest that Prince William subsequently sent an equerry to hand one's curriculum vitae into the network's personnel department in the hope of earning a place in the gantry alongside Darren Fletcher and Lucy Ward on co-comms, today it was revealed that Rio is out of the punditry game anyway. The former Manchester United defender has quit TNT after a decade's service to focus on making YouTube videos in which he says 'geezer' a lot, hawking branded snapbacks and chilling with his family. His final outing with Woodsy, Resh, Fletch, Sav, Luce, Coisty, Jules, Crouchy and Owen Hargreaves will be at the Bigger Cup final between PSG and Inter at the Allianz Arena. It is to be hoped he marks the occasion by engineering another one of those ludicrous scenarios where he makes sure the cameras are rolling before studiously not stepping on a club-branded carpet in a preposterously performative show of respect. 'Since retiring from football, it has been a privilege talking about the game I love for a decade for sports fans watching BT Sport and TNT Sports,' he announced in a statement on his Social Media Disgraces. 'I want to acknowledge the tremendous support from the team behind the scenes, whose hard work often goes unseen but has been essential to our success. As I turn the page to the next chapter, I carry with me countless memories. I am excited about what the future holds, spending more time with my family, focusing on Rio Ferdinand Presents and my other business interests.' Whether it was stating the bland and blindingly obvious at great and tedious length, repeatedly parroting 'Ballon d'Or!' at the top of his voice in praise of a player who would go on to be overlooked for the award in question, or abandoning any small pretence at professionalism by reducing the commentary of a recent dramatic finale to the status of FanZone homage, Ferdinand has carved out a unique and lucrative niche in the punditry pantheon over the past decade. While TNT have yet to announce how they plan to fill the gaping void that will be left by the absence of his searing football insight and top-tier banter, subscribers can at least rest easy, safe in the knowledge that the inevitable montage of his 'best bits' shown at the end of Saturday night's Bigger Cup broadcast should be mercifully brief. QUOTE OF THE DAY [Mikel Arteta] had time to get a nine, he had time … Manchester United played five finals in the last five years. The United that everyone laughs at played five finals. In the last three years of building that building, you didn't reach a final, so I do understand when people ask the question. Surely you should compete for a trophy, being in the final?' – Thierry Henry doesn't hold back in outlining frustrations at Arsenal's failure to sign a goalscorer, reach a final or win a trophy this season. FOOTBALL DAILY LETTERS 'Entries on The Knowledge are always worth reading, but the clip showing Jeff Astle's tap-in against Leeds after an outrageous non-offside call was especially entertaining. The referee's howler was the main feature, of course, but three cameos really made it memorable: the old chap in the St John's ambulance uniform, chuckling away at Astle's celebration; Don Revie showing untameable outrage by the old-school method of pursing his lips and shaking his head; and the highlight, a fleeting shot of a man in a suit, who could only be Arthur Scargill, being hauled off the pitch protesting against the injustice of it all. Glory days indeed' – Charles Antaki. Advertisement 'Re Tuesday's Football Daily, can I be amongst the first of 1,057 pedants to point out that Chelsea came fourth, not fifth' – Matthew Purchase (and 1,056 others). Send letters to Today's prizeless letter o' the day winner is … Charles Antaki. Terms and conditions for our competitions can be viewed here. NEWS, BITS AND BOBS Manchester United's season just somehow got a little worse: Ruben Amorim's side have lost 1-0 to Asean All-Stars, a team made up of south-east Asia internationals and selected players from the regional leagues, on their post-season tour of Kuala Lumpur. Advertisement Don't worry, though, United fans: the club are poised to sign Matheus Cunha from Wolves after triggering his £62.5m release clause. Enzo Maresca said that he had no knowledge of Mykhailo Mudryk, who was provisionally suspended by the Football Association after failing a doping test last December, turning up in Wroclaw before Chelsea's Tin Pot final against Real Betis. 'To be honest, I just … I don't know, he is here or is coming?' queried the baffled Maresca. Arsenal are close to signing Martín Zubimendi, one-time Liverpool target and Spain Euro 2024 hero, to further add to Mikel Arteta's midfield options. Predictable transfer news: Ajax's Jordan Henderson is linked with an emotional return to Sunderland, where he again might team up with a Bellingham. The Black Cats hope to keep Jobe, amid much interest. Advertisement Arne Slot pulled out of the League Managers Association's annual awards dinner in London on Tuesday after the appalling incident at the end of Liverpool's Premier League victory parade. Former Rangers, Liverpool and Stoke left-half, Willie Stevenson, one-time publican of the Kings Head, Macclesfield, has died at the age 85. Stevenson's spell at Anfield included league title successes in both 1964 and 1966, the 1965 FA Cup, the first in Liverpool history. 'The thoughts of everyone at Rangers are with Willie's family and friends at this sad time', read a Rangers statement. No Mary Earps but a potential bounty of £1.7m if the Lionesses defend their Euros title this summer. Millie Bright has meanwhile confirmed her absence from the England training camp was for reasons of burnout. 'I think mentally and physically I'm at my limits, which is why I'm not at camp,' sighed the Chelsea player. Liverpool have received inquiries from Brentford, West Ham and Leeds regarding the goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher and allowed John Heitinga to open talks with Ajax about becoming their new head coach. Advertisement And Internazionale, the scamps, will wear their third strip in Saturday's Bigger Cup final in Munich, a golden yellow shirt with black details and black shorts combination that rather resembles Borussia Dortmund. STILL WANT MORE? It's the season's end but you all know what that means. Yes, the transfer window is poised to fly open, and as ever Big Website has a transfer interactive for both the women and the men, as well as a club-by-club guide of the transfers from the top five leagues in Europe. If that wasn't snazzy enough for you, have a go on our all-singing, all-dancing Premier League 2024-25 picture essay: here's Jonny Weeks' story of the season in 100 photos. Advertisement Robbie Keane is a champion, as he continues his world tour of offbeat assignments by leading Ferencvaros to a seventh consecutive league title for Hungary's footballing powerhouse. That his team held off Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orban's club, Puskas Akademia, makes for a heady brew, as Tom Mortimer reports. Jacob Steinberg's Tin Pot final preview looks at how Chelsea can become the first English team to win all four European trophies – and why much of their manager's strategy is rooted in chess. Arsenal's Lisbon lioness, Stina Blackstenius, is profiled by Tom Garry, retracing her steps from Linköping to Lisbon to Arsenal hero status. 'This chapter is over. The story? Still being written. Grateful to all.' What did Cristiano Ronaldo mean by that? Will he play in the Fifa Club World Cup? John Duerden wonders what happens next for CR7. MEMORY LANE On this day in 2011, Wayne Rooney scores for Manchester United against Barcelona, becoming the sixth and last Englishman to score in a Champions League final, following Teddy Sheringham, Steve McManaman, Steven Gerrard, Sol Campbell and Frank Lampard. United would go on to lose to a Barça team Sir Alex Ferguson afterwards admitted 'are the best team we've faced', as Lionel Messi and David Villa smashed the Catalan side to victory.
