GM tips for this week
USA 1: Rickie Fowler - With the Players Championship under his belt and a win at the weekend in Scotland, Fowler has to be among the Americans most likely to win at St Andrews.
USA 2: Jordan Spieth - It's hardly a surprise pick, but Spieth is in the form of his life. A win at the weekend on the PGA Tour only reaffirms his position as the Open favourite.
Great Britain: Justin Rose - The Englishman's missed cut on his last visit to St Andrews shouldn't count for much. He has one win, a T2 and a play-off defeat in the last three months.
Ireland: Shane Lowry - There are few with a short-game like Lowry's. He finished T9 at the US Open on a testing course. Don't be surprised to see him high up the leaderboard again this week.
Scandinavia: Henrik Stenson - One of the few players who doesn't have a major but really should. His big-hitting off the tee is only one part of his game. He could certainly run anyone close on his day.
Rest of Europe: Victor Dubuisson - The Frenchman is due a win and has the game to do it. He performed well at the Scottish Open, finishing T10.
Asia: Thongchai Jaidee - With two top 11 finishes in his last three tournaments, Jaidee has the form to fare well at St Andrews.
Africa: Branden Grace - An impressive T4 finish at Chambers Bay reaffirms the idea that Grace is one of South Africa's most talented players. This could be his week.
Australasia: Adam Scott - Few boast as impressive a recent Open record as the Australian. He finished second in 2012, T3 in 2013 and T5 last year.
South America: Andres Romero: The Argentine is playing at the Barbasol Championship in Alabama. His T6 finish at the Greenbrier Classic will give him belief that a first PGA Tour win in seven years is not far away.
