The Scottish Open, which is currently sponsored by Barclays Capital, is one of the richer golf tournaments on the European Tour. It was a European Tour event in 1972 and 1973, and after a twelve year break has been a fixture in the schedule under a variety of names since 1986. Since 1996 it has taken place at Loch Lomond Golf Club north of Glasgow. It takes place the week before The Open Championship, and some concern has been expressed that the host course, which is very different from the links courses on which the Open is played, puts European Tour players at a disadvantage in the subsequent major, compared to their leading rivals from the PGA Tour, who traditionally spend a week practising for the Open on links courses in Ireland. There is a possibility that the event will move to the Dundonald links course in Ayrshire in the future, which is owned by the same company as Loch Lomond, but in 2006 the company's chief executive Keith Williams commented, "From our point of view, we would also perhaps regard Dundonald as being three years away from hosting a championship of this calibre." [1]

In 1972 the prize fund was £10,000 and by 2006 it had increased to £2.4 million. The prize fund has been raised to £3 million for 2007, and it is now the largest in a European Tour event that is not also sanctioned by the PGA Tour. [1]
