Adam Scott’s late collapse costs him the title
For four days the biggest names in golf fought for the most prestigious event, the 141st British Championship Open. The venue for this auspicious event was the Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Course. The four day event started from the 19th
of July and ended on the 22nd of July.
Players from all over the world came to win the Claret Jug. In the end there could have been only one winner. The rest of the players were disappointed.
This year’s Championship was bagged by Ernie Els. The player who got the closest to winning the title was Adam Scott. He almost had it but could not see his win through.
Scott had a magnificent tournament from the start. On the first day, he carded eight birdies and two bogeys which made his score six-under par for the day. Scott was able to take this momentum in the next two days as well.
He scored four birdies and a single bogey. These made his score three-under par for the day. His total score became nine-under par. On the last day, he carded just three birdies and a bogey. Thus his total score after three days was eleven-under par.
After the third day, Scott was on top of the leaderboard and had a good difference from the second position holder. He could have easily won it.
Even a par for the day would have done it. Unfortunately for him, he was not able to see his win through and messed up his game in the end.
The fourth day was the worst for Adam Scott. On the front nine, he carded three bogeys and just one birdie. Even then, he was in the lead.
On the back nine, he scored a birdie on the fourteenth and then carded four consecutive bogeys, starting from the fifteenth.
These four bogeys made him lose the Championship. He finished the tournament as close second. His score for the tournament was six-under par and was just one stroke behind the leader, Ernie Els who had seven-under par.
Adam Scott deserved this win. He had played some extraordinary golf in the last three days. His last day performance ruined his major win.
