Danny Willet was victorious in 2021 and celebrated his 34th birthday with one of the biggest wins of his career. He scored 18 under par and won the event by two strokes.

Due to the pandemic, the championship wasn't held in 2020.

Before that, in 2019, Victor Perez became the first French golfer to win the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. He scored 22 under par and clinched one of the best wins of his career.

In 2018, Lucas Bjerreggaard edged out Tyrrell Hatton, who was looking to win the event for the third time. The Dane beat British golfers Hatton and Tommy Fleetwood on the final day and won by a stroke.

Tyrrell Hatton won back-to-back trophies in 2016 and 2017. Hatton scored 23 under par and 24 under par, respectively, and became the first golfer to win this event in consecutive years. Since 2013, no other golfer has won this event twice, and Hatton has a chance to make it three wins this week.

Oliver Wilson, an invitee who lost his DP World Tour card in 2011, won this tournament in 2014. He had not won a DP World Tour event before and surprised everyone by winning as he carded 17-under for the event.

Another English golfer, David Howell, won the event in 2013 in a sudden-death playoff against Peter Uihlein. He drained a long eight-foot birdie putt on the second hole to register a win at the St. Andrews Golf Course.
