Scott Ready For Masters Defence

By guest writer Zoe

 

Adam Scott has insisted he believes his six-week lay-off will benefit him in his bid to defend his Masters title at Augusta in April and keep possession of the famous green jacket. The Australian returns to tournament action this week and is stepping up his preparations for the opening major of the year.  The world number two will be hoping his break from the game has recharged his batteries following a gruelling scott-dayA-646but successful 2013.

Scott has gradually slimed his schedule down over the past couple of years in a bid to stay as fresh as possible for the bigger events, and the Aussie’s tactic of playing less tournament golf has been the recipe for success over the last couple of seasons, with Scott the best-performing golfer based on the last eight majors.

While Scott’s 2013 season ultimately ended heartbreakingly close to completing a stunning Australian Triple Crown, winning the Masters earlier in the year finally cemented the Queenslander’s place among the game’s elite and proved Scott had what it takes to win a major and prove the Betfair odds right for tipping the Aussie. And the 33-year old is determined to build on his breakthrough year last season and make sure last year’s Masters triumph wasn’t a one-off.

"You don't really want to take some time off. You want to keep it rolling. But I'm also keeping the big picture in mind and my priorities are the Masters and the other three majors later this year, and I think the break was necessary, even though I was playing well."

"I haven't been competitive but I've certainly been working on all areas of the game. Hopefully I'm on track,” said Scott.

Despite the abundance of talent in Australia, only Jason Day, who was third last year and second in 2011, and Marc Leishman, who tied for fourth place last year, have booked their place alongside Scott at the season’s first major in April, although the Aussie trio are all being backed well to finish in the top-five again this year.

Two Naked Pics Of Holly Sonders. The Big News To Emerge From The 2013 PGA Show

Image
The media centre at the 2013 PGA Show was buzzing yesterday.  Not because of anything that happened at the show.  God forbid! When I rocked in, several men (and one woman) were gathered around an iphone ogling and sharing  two pics of who they claimed were Holly Sonders naked. Now I have to hold my hands up and say, I had to google her to find out she’s from The Golf Channel. I don’t watch the Golf Channel because I don’t have an erectile dysfunction problem or need to rent a car from National.  I’m told adverts for both are all that’s on that channel. How they knew for certain it was her, I dont know.  Unless the cheeks of her ass were on her passport photo and they recognized them from there, but I doubt it. The First Pic The first pic is taken from behind. No pun intended.  The media guys say it was taken by her fiancee (?) and shows Holly in a white thong which has disappeared a dangerously long ways into the bummage.  I’m talking t...

Sarah Stirk Nipple Gate: Navy Top Leaves Viewers Disappointed

Image
London: Sky Sports management this morning issued a statement  apologizing to subscribers after Sarah Stirk wore a navy dress live on air.  It is believed up to 60,000 horny golfers were left limp after they tuned in to final round coverage of the Valero Texas Open in the hope of getting a glimpse of the legendary Stirk starter buttons. “I pay my subscription, I’m bloody well entitled to see Sarah’s Wimbledon strawberries” said factory worker Paul Manning 52 from Hereford. “I even missed the ten minute freeview, coz my mate Derek tweeted that Stirk was going into the shot centre for ten minutes at 11pm”. The Sky statement read: We apologize unreservedly for the navy dress Sarah wore during last nights broadcast, through which no nipples were visible. This was due to a wardrobe malfunction. However we do intend to rectify this during our US Masters coverage and assure viewers that plenty of bridge rivets will be on show, both from Sarah and special guest Colin M...
