Adam Scott and the Presidents Cup is a story of unrequited love.
Scott, 44, loves the event but it hasn’t exactly loved him back. He has been playing in the biennial competition since 2003 and the Aussie star — past Masters champion, former world No. 1 and perennial winner for more than 20 years on the PGA Tour and around the world — has made or been chosen for every International Team since and still hasn’t tasted team victory.
It’s a dubious distinction but one he’s eager to have another chance to rectify this week at Royal Montreal Golf Club, site of the 2024 Presidents Cup. Scott not only will provide veteran leadership but he’s coming in with good form, having nearly won twice this summer. He finished runner-up at the Genesis Scottish Open in July and the BMW Championship in August to qualify for Mike Weir’s side as one of six automatic picks in the standings.
Scott also is a player director on the PGA Tour’s board of directors and discussed Tour business, his beautiful swing and what it was like having a Green Jacket in his closet for a year. Here’s Scott in a wide-ranging interview conducted just days before the Presidents Cup gets underway.
