\"\"<\/a>During a flying visit to Adelaide last week to catch up with family and friends, the world’s number three golfer, Adam Scott, took the opportunity to have a game at Glenelg Golf Club with his father, Phil, and two close family friends.<\/p>\n

For the 2013 Masters Champion, it was his first visit to Adelaide in seven years and the first time he had seen the Glenelg layout.\u00a0 From what he saw, he was quite impressed. “The course was in fantastic condition, and the layout is really good,” Scott told Glenelg’s General Manager, David Brand.\u00a0 “It’s the first time I have played Glenelg, and given I wasn’t sure where to hit it off the tee on some holes, I found it quite difficult,” he went on to say.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Difficult? Even with the small carry bag and his limited selection of golf clubs, Scott still managed to fire an even-par 71 from the back tees around a golf course he has never seen before.\u00a0 Scott’s power and accuracy was showcased on the 382 metre par four 10th hole with a massive drive disappearing over the hill and finishing about 60 metres short of the green.\u00a0 A little helpful guidance on the tee from local PGA professional, Adrian Wickstein, was well received by Scott.<\/p>\n

Scott was also very complimentary of the strategic nature of the course.\u00a0 “Now that I have played the course once,” Scott said, “I now know where I would hit it and it makes you think.\u00a0 It’s not a course where you would hit driver all that often.”<\/p>\n

Scott’s father, Phil, who oversees the burgeoning Adam Scott empire from their base in Queensland, is a regular visitor to Glenelg, with some close friends and family all members of the Club.\u00a0 “I don’t get the opportunity to play with my son that often, so when the opportunity arose to have a hit with him at Glenelg, it worked out really well for us.”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Another highlight of Scott’s visit was the opportunity for him to catch up with the newly appointed Adelaide Crows captain, Taylor “Tex” Walker.\u00a0 Being an avid Crows supporter and Ambassador, Scott was keen to meet with Tex when he heard the Captain was playing only a couple of groups behind him.\u00a0 The last time the two met was in November 2013 when Scott was in Melbourne to defend his Australian Masters title.<\/p>\n

Despite the low key visit, Scott was still very gracious and generous with his time – a trait for which he has become well-known – and was happy to have a few photos with members who had just watched him from the clubhouse play up the 18th hole.\u00a0 Scott also kindly signed some sporting memorabilia which the Club will use to raise funds for the Glenelg Golf Club Foundation in support of the Junior Golf & Elite Player Development Fund.<\/p>\n
