On the 16th hole, he hit his tee shot deep into the grass. As he came up to his ball and took a practice swing, MacIntyre felt a sprinkler. He was able to get a free drop into shorter grass, which allowed him to take out his 6-iron and hit a shot that gave him an incredible approach.
The eagle putt tied with Scott. And it was on the 18th hole where MacIntyre got the win.
The Scottish Open was the second PGA Tour win and third European Tour victory of his career. He won the RBC Canadian Open back in June.
The Open Championship is next up on the schedule. His best finish came in 2019 when he tied for sixth. He was tied for 71st last year.

"A lot of people have said, ‘He doesn’t quite have this, he doesn't quite have that.' But I have fight," MacIntyre said. "That's all I need."
