    Have been a big fan of this guy since day 1.
    Last couple of months he's started playing some good golf again and yesterday, he was just outstanding (barr some short irons into the green).

    I think he's going to climb back up the rankings and get very close to No. 1.
    I think himself and Rory McClroy have the best two swings on tour, better than Tiger.

    Not a guy i particularly like, but he did well to win last night, albeit against a weak field.

    I mentioned at the beginning of this year on another thread that Scott would have a big year and pencilled him in for the PGA Championship as a potential winner.

    As like yourself I have always been a fan of his game but this win is not unexpected as he has worked extremely hard to fight off the cobwebs of recent years and fair play to him for recognising his career was in serious danger of collapse. Thumbs up to him. Hope he continues the good progress.

    Very happy to see him winning again, he is definetly one of those
    players that can just make the game look ridiculously easy when he is on form.
    Was a joy to watch him yesterday and hopefully he can
    continue this good form to the majors.

    I think he'll do very well at the British Open this year,
    he likes the fast greens and his driving and long irons are starting to get very accurate.

    Fair play to him for getting the win and all that but I dont think he's in the same league as some of the other top 10 golfers. He has the ability alright but rarely delivers and is not a golfer id have confidence in if he was tied for the lead with some of the other big names after a Saturday round in the majors. Think he lacks a bit in self belief and nerve under pressure and dont think he will ever recapute the world number 3 spot that he held early last year I think it was. Then again, I could be completely wrong and we could have another Lee Westwood type revival on our hands.

    Great swing reminds me of Tiger at his best.

    good win, but my god did anyone see his putt on 18....twas a shocker - he used to be the best guy from 10-15 feet on tour but his short putting was poor....not sure thats changed.

    Good to see him back in, all round nice guy but nearly inexplicably threw it away with a shocker from 3 feet in regulation

    Emm, i may be wrong here and i know he missed that shortish putt on the last, but at one point (cant remember which hole) in the final round he had holed 50/50 putts from inside 6 feet for the tournament.
    If thats not quality putting i dont know what is.
