Find Me a 100 Winner: Four long-shots chanced in Scotland and Kentucky at between 139/1 and 239/1

With the Open Championship now just a little over a week away, the world's elite will be warming up for the year's final major in the Scottish Open, which has been a very good event for outsiders with four of the last eight winners going off at between 110.0109/1 and 1000.0999/1.

On the other side of the pond, the opposite field event is the ISCO Championship, which has also been a reasonable event for long-shots.

I've got two picks in each event, and I'll start with the week's main co-sanctioned tournament, the Scottish Open...

Scottish Open bet #1 - Harry Hall @ 200.0199/1

The 28-year-old Cornishman, Harry Hall, who grew up learning his trade at the classic links layout at West Cornwall Golf Club, has enjoyed this week over the last couple of years.

In 2024 he won a five-man playoff at the ISCO Championship and last he sat second at the halfway stage of this event.

A sloppy 74 on Saturday completely derailed his challenge but he's shown his aptitude for the course and he's too big at 190.0189/1 this year.

Hall, who has also won twice on the Korn Ferry Tour, has already finished inside the top 10 three times on the PGA Tour in 2026 but this will be the sort of test he's most suited to.

Scottish Open bet #2 - Jesper Svensson @ 240.0239/1

Jesper Svensson finished only 43^rd in last year's Scottish Open, despite shooting 62 in round two, but he further demonstrated his love of links golf the following week at Portrush when he finished 16^th in the Open Championship, despite sitting outside the top 50 at halfway.

The 30-year-old Swede, who also shot 65 here in round four two years ago on his first visit to the Renaissance Course looks a big price in the Betfair Exchange win market at 240.0239/1 and he looks a great price to finish inside the top 10.

Svensson arrives in Scotland in sparkling form this time around, following a ninth-place finish in the CJ Cup Byron Nelson and a fourth in the Canadian Open, and the reason for his red-hot streak is his putter.

As highlighted in the preview, a good week with the flatstick has been vital here so the fact that he's ranked fifth and third for Putting Average bodes very well and another top 10 finish looks achievable.

ISCO Championship bet #1 - Nick Dunlap @ 140.0139/1

Anyone that's won twice on the PGA Tour before they turn 21 has plenty of game and they deserve respect.

Nick Dunlop won his first event - The American Express - when still an amateur in January 2024 and he followed that win with victory in the Barracuda Championship in July 2024.

That was a remarkable start to his career so it's perhaps not surprising that he's lost his way a bit subsequently, but he caught the eye at the John Deere Classic last week, where he shot three rounds of 67.

Dunlap's 72 on Friday saw him slip to 60^th place entering the weekend so his tied 33^rd was admirable effort.

In an event that has gone to someone in their mid-20s in each of the last three years, the 22-year-old Dunlap looks worth chancing at 140.0139/1.

ISCO Championship bet #2 - Oihan Guillamoundeguy @ 140.0139/1

This is an event that tends to go to out of form players but it's hard to ignore the wellbeing of Frenchman, Oihan Guillamoundeguy, at a big price this week.

The 21-year-old, who won on the Alps Tour by eight strokes at the age of just 17, finished third in the Catalunya Championship on the DP World Tour in May and after a top 25 finish in the Italian Open two weeks ago, he caught the eye again last week when he finished fourth in the BMW International Open.

In addition to his two wins on the Alps Tour, Guillamoundeguy has also won on the HotelPlanner Tour, so he looks to have a big future.

A European has won three of the last five editions of the ISCO Championship and the last two, the Vincent Norman, who beat another European, Nathan Kimsey, in the playoff, and the aforementioned Hall, were both in the 20s.

Look at the profile of the winners, being in form appears to be the biggest negative about Oihan Guillamoundeguy and that's a negative I'm prepared to ignore.
