What in the world happened to Adam Scott?
To remember Adam Scott without putting problems is to think back to a time long ago, when he was winning the Players Championship in a blustery March and taking short-game tips from fellow Aussie Greg Norman.
When Scott won the 2004 Players, he was 23, a can't-miss star whose work with instructor Butch Harmon elicited comparisons to Tiger Woods; their swing action was so similar.
Fast-forward to a practice round last week at TPC Sawgrass, where Scott found himself amid Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka and Nick Watney, all students of Harmon or Harmon's son, Claude Harmon III. The elder Harmon was there for the practice round, too, and with that came stories and memories.
