One of the most eagerly anticipated tournaments on the DP World Tour schedule has been taking place in Scotland this week, with Carnoustie, Kingsbarns and the Old Course at St Andrews hosting the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.
As a result, there is no cut, meaning that, rather than the Old Course being the one course to host Sunday’s final round, all three will again be in use as 167 players compete.
Robert MacIntyre and Richard Sterne began the final round with the co-lead on 12 under. MacIntyre will play at the Old Course in the third round, with Sterne competing at Carnoustie.
Tyrrell Hatton is the defending champion. The LIV Golfer began the final round on seven under in T23rd at the Old Course.

Whichever player stands tallest at the end of the tournament will earn themselves a check for $816,000 from a total prize purse of $5 million.
The $5 million total is also only beaten by two other regular DP World Tour events (Nedbank Golf Challenge and Irish Open), with the Rolex Series tournaments and Majors also offering higher sums.
The runner-up is set to scoop just north of $500,000, while everyone else inside the top nine could receive over six figures.

The overall payout has not changed since 2022 and is almost the same as this week’s Sanderson Farms Championship on the PGA Tour.
Plus, with only a handful of events remaining before the DP World Tour Playoffs in the Middle East, each pro will be desperate to do well this week as they aim to accumulate as many Race To Dubai ranking points as possible.
Below is the full prize money breakdown for the 2025 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.
