Adam Scott's curious comments about Tiger and Rory: "Is someone making that up?"
Adam Scott offers his latest thoughts on the professional golf landscape after Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy called on LIV Golf's Greg Norman to quit.
Adam Scott says Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are "speaking for the PGA Tour somewhat these days it seems" ahead of the Australian Open.
Scott has made no secret that he is interested in the LIV Golf League, which has just named three new venues ahead of the 2023 season.
The Australian - who has convinced Tiger's legendary Steve Williams to come out of retirement - doesn't view the league as pure evil.
That being said, the 42-year-old appears to be staying put for now. He wants to win more major championships and has even made the commitment to play more events in the U.S. next year.

Two players who have had strong opinions about LIV Golf since the series' emergence are 15-time major champion Woods and four-time major champ McIlroy.
Woods - in this writer's opinion - has been more consistent in his approach and comments whilst McIlroy changes his tune more frequently than Bryson DeChambeau's approach to his diet.
Woods has called for Norman to quit as LIV Golf commissioner, echoing the sentiments expressed by McIlroy at the DP World Tour Championship where the Northern Irishman, 33, said The Great White Shark needed to "exit stage left".
Speaking before the Hero World Challenge on the PGA Tour - aside from ripping Phil Mickelson - Woods claimed that he didn't know what the end game would look like.
He has called for litigation to stop on both sides, providing Norman steps away.
On this subject, Scott told the media he believes the good of the game will eventually prevail. The 2013 Masters winner believes the PGA Tour and LIV should both just "get on with what they're doing".

He said:
One high-profile player who doesn't believe Norman should step aside is Cameron Smith.
Smith - who was filmed giving it large after his latest victory - believes that despite Norman being "abrasive" at times, Norman, 67, is truly dedicated to their product.
The champion golfer of the year told the Sydney Herald and The Age:
Smith will be playing his first round at the Australian Open alongside Matt Jones and Adrian Meronk. Scott is paired with Cameron Davis and amateur Harrison Crowe.
