Golf-It's mind over matter in the PGA Championship for Scott (Reuters)

July 27 (Reuters) - Battling nerves will be the biggest challenge for Adam Scott in this week's PGA Championship, as the Australian golfer looks to add to his sole major victory at the 2013 Masters.

The 36-year-old triumphed in the WGC-Cadillac Championship and the Honda Classic this year, but failed on the big stage, his best showing in a major in 2016 being a tied 18th finish in the U.S. Open.

The world number eight said he will look to stay relaxed at the Baltusrol Golf Club in New Jersey.

"You just have to go out there with a core belief you are going to play really well," Scott told Australian media.
