Scott Jamieson was born November 28th 1983 in Glasgow, Scotland.<\/p>\n<p>2. After an amateur career that included playing for Scotland in the 2006 Eisenhower Trophy, he turned professional later that year.<\/p>\n<p>3. Jamieson\u2019s first professional win came three years later on the PGA EuroPro Tour.<\/p>\n<p>            You may like<\/p>\n<p>4. That earned him a Challenge Tour card for 2010.<\/p>\n<p>5.

His maiden Major appearance came at the 2011 Open, which was held at <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.golfmonthly.com\/courses\/top-100-courses\/royal-st-georges-golf-club-course-review-60448\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.golfmonthly.com\/courses\/top-100-courses\/royal-st-georges-golf-club-course-review-60448\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-article-category=\"tour\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.golfmonthly.com\/courses\/top-100-courses\/royal-st-georges-golf-club-course-review-60448\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Royal St George\u2019s<\/a>, although he missed the cut.<\/p>\n<p>7. In December 2012, he claimed his one and only DP World Tour title to date, when he beat Eduardo de la Riva and Steve Webster in a playoff at the Nelson Mandela Championship.<\/p>\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.24%;\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/d8NZa7VoYPRoWr4Du6Y95U.jpg\" alt=\"Scott Jamieson with the Nelson Mandela Championship trophy\"   loading=\"lazy\" data-new-v2-image=\"true\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/d8NZa7VoYPRoWr4Du6Y95U.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/d8NZa7VoYPRoWr4Du6Y95U.jpg\" class=\"rounded-[var(--image--border-radius,0)]\"\/>\n<\/p>\n<p>Scott Jamieson won the 2012 Nelson Mandela Championship<\/p>\n<p>(Image credit: Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p id=\"elk-a60da92a-9e4b-11f1-99e9-2d80f6d5339f\">8. That win involved a round of 57, although it wasn\u2019t quite as impressive as that sounds. That\u2019s because parts of the course were so waterlogged that the layout had to be shortened by about 1,600 yards, which was adjusted to a par 65 in a 36-hole contest.<\/p>\n<p>9. At the 2013 Portugal Masters, he nearly carded a 59. After 11 birdies in the first 17 holes of his third round, he needed one more at the 18th to break 60. However, his chip towards the hole just drifted past.<\/p>\n<p>10. <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pgatour.com\/player\/31138\/scott-jamieson\/bio?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.pgatour.com\/player\/31138\/scott-jamieson\/bio?utm_source=chatgpt.com\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-article-category=\"tour\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\">Per PGATour.com<\/a>, Jamieson\u2019s favorite Major is The Masters. However, he has yet to play in it. Overall, he has four Open appearances and one in the PGA Championship, resulting in a T29 in 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Swipe to scroll horizontally<\/p>\n<p>Scott Jamieson Bio<\/p>\n<p>Born<\/p>\n<p>November 28th 1983 &#8211; Glasgow, Scotland<\/p>\n<p>Turned pro<\/p>\n<p>2006<\/p>\n<p>Former Tours<\/p>\n<p>Challenge Tour, PGA EuroPro Tour<\/p>\n<p>Current Tour<\/p>\n<p>DP World Tour<\/p>\n<p>Professional wins<\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p>Swipe to scroll horizontally<\/p>\n<p>Scott Jamieson Professional Wins<\/p>\n<p>Tour<\/p>\n<p>Event<\/p>\n<p>Winning Score<\/p>\n<p>PGA EuroPro Tour<\/p>\n<p>2009 Partypoker.com European Championship<\/p>\n<p>-9 (Playoff)<\/p>\n<p>PGA EuroPro Tour<\/p>\n<p>2009 ABC Solutions UK Championship<\/p>\n<p>-12 (seven shots)<\/p>\n<p>DP World Tour<\/p>\n<p>2012 Nelson Mandela Championship<\/p>\n<p>-7 (Playoff)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Scott Jamieson has spent the last 20 years in the professional game, and has largely built his reputation&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":54432,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[1461],"class_list":["post-54431","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-genesis-scottish-open","tag-genesis-scottish-open"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54431","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54431"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54431\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54432"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54431"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54431"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54431"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
