As we gear up for the links-style courses at the Scottish Open and the British Open at Royal Troon, there's still plenty of excitement for this week's John Deere Classic. Sure, it might feel a bit overshadowed by the upcoming majors, but the winner here gets a spot in the year’s last major championship—a huge incentive!
