Eight is enough
Adam Scott's first trip to the Target World Challenge won't be remembered fondly.
The Australian, ranked No. 4 in the world, followed his opening 75 with an 8-over 80 in Friday's second round.
"I'm trying not to think about what's going on," Scott said, "because if I did, I'd just get mad.
"There's no need throwing the toys out of the cart for a couple of bad rounds."
Most of Scott's problems can be traced to the par-3 eighth hole.
He five-putted from 3 feet Thursday for a quadruple-bogey 7. He took three shots to reach the green Friday and then three-putted for a triple-bogey 6.
That's 7 over for two rounds on a par-3.
"I have no comment on that hole," Scott said. "I'm improving though."
