Golf: Adam Scott is only two shots off the lead in the BMW Championship.
Scott RED HOT at BMW Championship | 00:56 Adam Scott smashed a 390m drive to show the old guy still has it as he surged into a share of third at the $30m BMW Championship.The 44-year-old was keen to point out his epic feat in the aftermath of his opening round four-under par 68, which left him two shots behind surprise leader Keegan Bradley at Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado .
Scott stepped up to the tee on the par four 10th hole and didn’t hold back, sending the ball, by official measurements, 389.3m, making one of his four back-nine birdies, and five for the round, to put himself in contention. “I think the highlight was hitting it 430 down the 10th, by the way. Forget the iron play,” he said.
“I was a bit surprised it played more difficult than I thought it would, and I can see now if you’re off out there, you’re going to really struggle because the rough is brutal. It’s going to be important to hit a lot of fairways the rest of the week.”
