SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Adam Scott is the highest-ranked player at this week's Singapore Open and the Australian world number seven will be confident of starting 2017 with a victory at a course and tournament where he has tasted success three times before.
The smooth-swinging 36-year-old possesses the accuracy off the tee and short game necessary to tame the Sentosa Golf Club's fiendishly difficult Serapong Course with an unerring proficiency that even he finds difficult to explain.
"The course is just one of those things for me, I seem to manage to play well here. I stand on the tee and my ball ends up on the fairway more often than not," Scott, Singapore Open champion in 2005, 2006 and 2010, told reporters on Wednesday.
