Two decades ago, Adam Scott was considered by many experts as a possible threat to end Tiger Woods' era of dominance alongside names like Sergio Garcia, David Duval and Phil Mickelson. Now, the veteran is one of the top players who will try to end Team USA's supremacy at the 2022 Presidents Cup.
Undoubtedly, Adam Scott's biggest moment of his career was at the 2013 Masters when he won his first (and only) Major championship. He is the only Australian player to ever win at Augusta National. His breakthrough performance was the victory at the 2004 Players Championship with that epic finish in the 18th hole to beat Padraig Harrington.

Former world No.1 ranked golfer and 31 professional wins are part of a great résumé which makes him one of the greatest hopes for the International Team to beat Team USA at the 2022 Presidents Cup in Quail Hollow.
