Anytime this gentleman speaks I’m all ears. We need him to help lead golf here on out.
I attended a Canadian PGA tour event in Myrtle Beach, SC in 98 or 99 with a good friend who brought a golf ball and a sharpie expressly for Adam to sign. Once Doug had his chance off of 18 green he handed the ball to Mr Scott but then realized he had lost his pen. While my buddy was cursing himself Adam Scott was actively asking for a sharpie from anyone nearby. He found one quickly and signed the ball and made a fan out of me for life. That is the face of golf if we were so fortunate.
