Dublin: In more ways than one, Adam Scott feels on top of the world going into this week’s Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio where he has always loved the leafy Muirfield Village Golf Club layout.
The Australian could hardly be playing better, having clinched the Crowne Plaza Invitational in a playoff on Sunday, and he will be making his second consecutive appearance on the PGA Tour since replacing Tiger Woods as world number one.
“It’s great to be back here,” Scott told reporters on Wednesday. “It’s a course I like very much. I feel like it sets up well for me and I’m playing well. I’m going to try and keep the momentum going after last week.”
Asked how satisfying it had been to win a tournament in his first week at the top of the golf rankings, Scott replied: “It’s satisfying, absolutely.
“But I think all the things I did leading up certainly helped put me in the right mindset to play well last week. It took a couple days for it to show up really on the weekend, but that’s when it counts. Reuters
