Familie Nijhof is still hunting for their first title — and in Scotland they came closer than ever. Level with Jansen after three days, they walked into the championship flight on the final day at Fairmont and lost it. Hans — 'Cirkelen' — should be thankful that Nick chose him over his Swedish stepdad, though the results sometimes make you question that loyalty. Nick treats golf as a strictly annual activity and shows up to wing it, then goes and tops the individual standings for the week. The talent is there, the practice hours are not. When they finally put it all together, watch out.

If you could buy a golf game, Nick would have the best one in the field. Instead, his clubs collect more dust than fairway divots between tournaments. Hans should be grateful Nick chose him over his Swedish stepdad — though some years, the results make you wonder.

Hans should count his blessings that Nick didn't bring his Swedish stepdad instead. For now, Hans gets to keep his spot — circling the course with his signature style, reading greens like a book, and rarely making the same mistake twice.
