"Let's get on with it" Adam Scott urges Tiger Woods to meet PIF and get answers
Adam Scott wants all six PGA Tour player directors including Tiger Woods to meet Saudi PIF boss Yasir Al-Rumayyan.
Adam Scott is urging all of the PGA Tour player directors - including Tiger Woods - to meet with Saudi PIF governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan to either get on and broker a deal, or quite simply move on.

Malnati confirmed on Saturday night that despite rumours, none of the player directors have been informed a Monday 18 March meeting has been scheduled.
Scott, speaking at this week's Players Championship, believes a meeting must take place with PIF right now and 15-time major champion Woods must be there.
He told reporters at TPC Sawgrass:
