Adam Scott

Captain Greg Norman has faith that his fellow Aussie can work some magic in his fourth Presidents Cup appearance. Adam Scott, a member of three previous International Presidents Cup teams, comes to Harding Park hoping to put a positive end on what has been a disappointing season. Scott saw his Official World Golf Ranking drop from third in July 2008 to 53rd in the run-up to the PGA TOUR Playoffs for the FedExCup, where he finished tied for 58th at The Barclays and failed to qualify for the second event. Although Scott had struggled with a cyst on a knee that may require surgery, Norman remains confident. "At the end of the day, he's got the playing skills along with what he can bring to the locker room, the support he gives to other players, and the connection and experience that he's had playing on The Presidents Cup team," Norman said. "Everyone goes through slumps in golf and in life and being on the team should give him a huge boost of confidence."
