Adam Scott

[Shankster]

My favorite Australian golfer... Mr. Adam Scott.

Is there a more fluid swing on tour?

Kind of curious why he would switch to a longer driver and a different ball right before the Masters... he is already a long driver of the ball... I just can’t see why he’d do that.  The distance hype train got ahold of him.

Either way, a great golfer with a great swing. 
 

Should he have won more with such swing? Who knows, but I wouldn’t mind playing a round with him after watching the play 9 with a mate Instagram feeds.

 

* please keep any bashing out of this thread... thanks!

seems like one of the nicest and most likable guys on tour as well. I hope he can get back into the winner's circle soon. Love watching him swing a golf club. Mesmerizing.

Obviously I'm a bit biased but I'm a big fan. A few years (well, quite a few years ago) when they were playing Firestone, I was following Adam around and got to talking to his caddy at the time, Joe. I mentioned that I was missing Adam's autograph an my hat and he spoke to Adam, gave me the signal after he teed off (during the tournament), I tossed him my hat and he got Adam to sign it for me.

That’s awesome.

His swing is a 10 for sure.  I would use slow mo of his swing to show proper positions to kids on the HS golf team when i helped coach. 

Day to day putting inconsistencies always seemed to hurt his score.

I think you're right about the distance bug biting him - but he really dosen't need that at Augusta.  He is often mentioned as having the best swing on tour.  It will be interesting to see whether a longer driver increases his driving distance and how that affects driving accuracy.

To me it looked like it messed up his timing through the bag.  Blocking many shots out to the right, I don’t remember this being an issue before.
