Four months after watching countryman Adam Scott emerge victoriously from a playoff at the Masters, Greg Norman is convinced the young Australian will bag another major this weekend at Oak Hill.
Shortly before Scott teed off at the PGA Championship in the day’s final group alongside overnight leader Jason Dufner, Norman was asked for his view on how the 33-year-old would fare this weekend. Norman, who won two majors in his own right and lost playoffs at the PGA Championship in both 1986 and 1993, did not mince words:
“@barrybalcom: @SharkGregNorman Hey Greg,

Would love to see Adam Scott get another one.
What do you think?”
He will win going away!!
After rounds of 65 and 68, Scott began the third round two shots behind Dufner, tied for second place alongside Jim Furyk and Matt Kuchar. (Update: Scott shot 2-over 72 and finished the third round four back of Furyk.)
