PGA Championship: Adam Scott back in PGA chase after long break Down Under

Firstpost  

Adam Scott has plenty of familiarity with both the PGA Championship — this is his 20th — as well as the host Harding Park Golf Club.

Reminded that he’d recorded more rounds of 65 or better than any golfer in PGA Championship history, he quipped, “just not four days in a row.” Later on, when a reporter pointed out that Scott was one of only three golfers to have competed in three previous events — the 2005 World Golf Championship, 2009 Presidents Cup and the 2015 Match Play — at the famed San Francisco municipal course, he broke into a grin.
