One of the highlights of the Genesis Scottish Open is the spectacular backdrop at the Renaissance Club near North Berwick, which offers vistas along the south shore of the Firth of Forth, an inlet of the North Sea.

But one of the drawbacks of that picturesque locale is the potential for sea fog, which can get incredibly thick.

Local forecasters are expecting a healthy dose of that fog on Sunday and, accordingly, the final-round tee times at the event have been adjusted to a two-tee start from approximately 11:30 a.m. to 1:40 p.m. local time.

Scotland is five hours ahead of ET. The final round will start at 6:30 a.m. ET.

Coverage has been adjusted as well with CNBC starting coverage at 9 a.m., and Golf Channel picking things up at 10 a.m.
