The countdown is officially on for the Scottish Open, and there are important travel and parking warnings to be aware of if you're planning to visit.

For the seventh year in a row, the Genesis Scottish Open will take place at the Renaissance Club, near Dirleton.


It's predicted that thousands of golf fans will be heading to East Lothian to watch the tournament.

The event will run from Wednesday July 9 to Sunday July 13, and East Lothian Council has put traffic restrictions in place to try and control the influx of visitors.

The event is part of the Rolex Series on the DP World Tour and is seen as one of the highlights of the golfing calendar.
