Golf: Adam Scott gives Singapore Open a miss
Both tournaments take place from 10-13 November - the week before the Presidents Cup clash - and Scott has decided to play in Sydney rather than Singapore, where he has claimed the title three times in the last six years. "It was a tough one for me," the 31-year-old told Australia's Channel 10. "(Sponsors] Barclays and the Singapore Open have been big supporters of mine, but the Australian Open is really tough to pass up and I am going to be playing in Sydney. I think it's the right move for me. I really want to get down there and win the Australian Open again."
Scott won his home open in 2009 and is relishing the chance of repeating the feat against a field including Tiger Woods and defending champion Geoff Ogilvy.
