Robert MacIntyre picks up where he left off. The great Scottish golfer delighted golf fans with his appearances on the PGA Tour last year. Although he had huge problems in the initial stages, the 28-year-old picked up the pace in the rest of the season and managed to win the RBC Canadian Open and the Genesis Scottish Open.

MacIntyre wanted to be just as great this season, and his first performance at The Sentry Tournament showed that Scot plans to take it a step further this year. Robert finished tied for 15th, with a total score of 21 shots under par. After the first tournament of the year, his bank account will have $292,000 more, and in addition, he won 62,667 points on the FedEx Cup list.
MacIntyre will next play the Sony Open, followed by an interesting challenge: the Hero Dubai Desert Classic. The tournament will feature big names in the world of golf, such as Jon Rahm, Rory McIlroy, Viktor Hovland, and others. The 28-year-old Scot said he was looking forward to coming to the Emirates Golf Club, stressing that it is a place where he has excelled before. The first tournaments can be very important for many, given that positive results provide a huge motivation for the rest of the season.

Im looking forward to getting back to the Emirates Golf Club, said MacIntyre, as quoted by Scotsman.
Its a place where I have played well in the past, and it would be great to get the new season off to a strong start again.
Golf fans in Scotland have high expectations for the 28-year-old who has yet to show the wealth of talent and quality he has. Given that he has already gotten used to the new environment and the challenges that the PGA Tour brings, 2025 could be even more special for him.
We'll see how much MacIntyre can really do.
