World No. 12 Adam Scott rallied for a 2-under-par 35-33=68 in the final round of the FedEx St. Jude Classic to conclude on 6-under 274, up 12 places to T10 with play still in progress.
After top-ranked Rickie Fowler (No. 9) missed the 36-hole cut, the Aussie became the top dog in OWGR remaining in the field. After kicking off in 71-64-71, he began T22 on 4-under, five adrift of a trio of overnight leaders. The 36-year-old was 1-over thru 13 holes, outbalancing birdie-2 at 4 (from 11'5") with bogeys at 5 and 10, but then circled 14, 16 and 17 coming in, two of those between 18 and 21 feet. He hit eight (of 14) fairways and 12 greens in regulation, gaining 1.147 strokes off-the-tee, currently No. 1 in the latter with a cumulative 5.366. This was Scott's second FESJC after solo 7th in 2007 and will post a seventh top 25 of the season in 11 starts, possibly a fourth top 10. Jun 11 - 5:07 PM
World No. 12 Adam Scott twirled a 6-under-par 33-31=64 in the second round of the FedEx St. Jude Classic to reach 5-under 135, up 54 spots on the live leaderboard to T11 and tying the low round of the day with J.B. Holmes and low round of the week.
This is the 36-year-old's second St. Jude, first since a solo 7th in 2007 where he was the 54-hole leader by three but closed in 5-over 75. He sleepwalked to a 1-over 71 on Day 1, outpacing two birdies with three bogeys on six (of 14) fairways and 11 greens in regulation. The Aussie improved to nine fairways and 14 greens in regulation in R2, gaining 2.763 strokes off-the-tee, currently No. 1 in the latter with a cumulative 3.301. He also the clubhouse leader in SG: Tee-to-Green thru 36 holes, posting 8.765, 6.754 of that in R2. Scott erased a lone bogey-5 at 5 with five birdies and eagle-3 at 16 from 17'7", highlighted by a near-ace at the par-3 14th, tapping in from eight inches. He posted 1.643 putts per GIR though -0.793 SG: Putting, missing five scoring tries from inside of 11 feet. Jun 9 - 6:54 PM
Adam Scott rebounded from a poor start at the Memorial Tournament, styling a 6-under-par 35-31=66 during round two, cracking the top 25 on the live leaderboard at 2-under 142 after 36 holes.
The Aussie swallowed five bogeys and a double in round one, settling for a disappointing 76. He returned for a morning tee time on Friday and flipped the script, entirely. Scott put on a stripe show today, setting up nine birdie looks from inside 13 feet while also splashing home a 22'1" eagle putt at the par-5 15th. The 36-year-old walked off the course gaining 4.049 strokes approaching-the-green. Scott entered the week with three top 5s on his Memorial resume (9 starts) but hadn't played here since 2014. It appears he needed a round to refresh his memory on Muirfield Village, but now he's a strong contender to make a weekend run. Jun 2 - 1:41 PM
Past champ and World No. 11 Adam Scott rallied for a 2-under-par 38-32=70 in the final round of THE PLAYERS to conclude on 5-under 283, up seven places to season-best T6, five shy of champion Si Woo Kim.
The 2004 winner adds his fourth top 10 in his 16th appearance, first since T6 in 2007. It's his sixth top 25 of the season in nine starts and third top 10, joining T10 at the CIMB Classic and T9 at the Masters. After opening in 70-72-71, the 36-year-old began on 3-under (T13) and found nine (of 14) fairways and 12 greens in regulation, gaining 4.304 strokes tee-to-green. He was birdie-less 2-over thru 10 holes, squaring Nos. 4 and 8, but played his final eight holes in blemish-free 4-under, circling 11, 12, 16 and 17, adding a 13'6" par-saver at the last. For the week, the Aussie tallied 17 birdies against eight bogeys and two doubles. May 14 - 7:12 PM
