Forget Poulter, Scott is the man to challenge Woods



So after all, it's not Ian Poulter who is Tiger's main challenger. It is in fact, someone who I failed to mention in my poll, a certain Adam Scott who can challenge Tiger over the next five years.

This is all according to his coach, Butch Harmon, who is of course Tiger Woods' former coach.

A report from The Australian reveals how Harmon said:

"Adam Scott is the best player under 30 in the world by far,"

"You may get an argument for Luke Donald or Sergio Garcia but I just think Adam Scott is above them. He's a truly great talent.

"He's the only one I see of the young players with all the things it takes to get close to Tiger Woods."

On the other hand, a post from the Grouchy Golf Blog plays down Scott's chances. The writer claims that Scott hasn't got the short game or putting skills to match Tiger.

A really good addition to this post is how they have uploaded a video, comparing the swings of the two golfers. Its a really good example of how this blog is using the digital newsroom to great effect.
