After a 15 year break from the BMW PGA Championship Adam Scott returns with a bang
The Australian carded a 7-under-par 65, his lowest score at Wentworth and a tally bettered by only Kiradech Aphibarnrat and Christiaan Bezuidenhout in Thursday’s first round.
A lot has changed since Adam Scott last played in the European Tour's flagship event.
Back in 2006 Tony Blair was still Prime Minister, six-times bankrupt Donald Trump was flogging a living as a TV business expert, and the Wentworth estate was home to the likes of Russ Abbott rather than Russian oligarchs.
In the opinion of most of us, age treats a face better than any surgeon's knife, but 41-year-old Scott seems to like the golfing equivalent.
