Adam Scott Sunday Flash Interview 2024 Tour Championship © PGA Tour

Scotty I'm afraid I probably know the answer to this but coming down the stretch were you aware at all of sort of the FedEx Cup bonus implications where you were with Russell um that's a you know we're High hi I knew I was high up there but it's it's weird because I'm 11 shots [Laughter] behind starting seven back was not good for me this week oh [Applause] boy and as it applies to what Scotty has done there aren't too many guys in the field who played with tiger in his prime would you compare this to Tiger yeah I think that's fair I think all the stats back that up I think the the results back it up it's been pretty incredible you know from really starting at Bay Hill I guess yeah it I I think I think it it is on par with those great years of tigers I I think it's very hard today for anyone to separate themsel as much as Scotty has I don't think we've seen that in a long time I think it's I think it's harder to do it today yeah can you pinpoint his secret sauce have you I ask him every every day did he hold that shot out of the bunker yeah wow um oh yeah that was nice oh he chipped in nice yeah you ask him every day uh yeah I do I I'm observing all the time everything he does I I try I switched to his golf ball this year I I did a bunch of stuff just to see what's going on but I didn't find it I want to Pivot quickly to Royal Montreal talking to Mike talking to Trevor ER they say they anticipate the atmosphere being electric you've been through a lot of these how much are you looking forward to teeing up me President's Cup once again yeah I'm really looking forward to it I mean I it's interesting I was kind of struggling on the points list for most of the year and then the last couple months really solidified my position on the team and all of a sudden I feel like I'm a good player again and I'm looking forward to going up there and kind winning some points and I really like the way this team is going to be shaping up here when it's announced in a couple days and feel like everything that's gone into the international team over the last couple years from Ernie to Trevor and now Mike uh I'm excited for was to come up there I know they're putting a lot into it to kind of make it feel like as as much of a home game as possible for us and we're counting on the Canadian fans for that but we're all going to have to do our job and win some points to get them on our side how would you rate your optimism going into this match compared to maybe previous matches I I like it I I think our teams like deeper than we've seen for a while and uh I'm I mean as far as world ranking goes not that that's to be all an Endor but it's something usually our bottom uh players drift drift out a little in the world ranking and and it's a lot tighter this year so you know I feel I feel like we're putting together a formidable side and 18-hole match play and some momentum and we could we can get right in it thanks okay
