Adam Scott hasn’t missed a major tournament since 2001 but ice-cold nerves from a compatriot in a US Open qualifying event may have ended the run.
Adam Scott’s 23-year streak of playing in every major tournament is in jeopardy – and it was a sheepish Australian rival who played the party pooper on “golf’s longest day”.
Davis rolled in a nerveless 15-foot putt to stay alive, then won the play-off – and the US Open spot – when he nailed an approach to near the pin on the 39th hole of the day.Scott’s chances of teeing up in a 92nd consecutive major on June 13 are not entirely dead, however. Davis, the 2017 Australian Open champion, was not aware he’d potentially ended Scott’s streak until told about it in a post-round interview.
