Ana hopes Adam’s success will rub off on her.
by bahamaderek on Dec.11, 2009, under Ana Ivanovic
Adam Scott won the Open for his first pro victory in his home country, shooting an even-par 72 on Sunday to beat Stuart Appleby by five strokes.
Scott won 14 times worldwide since turning pro in 2000 before breaking through in his native land. He finished at 15-under 273 at New South Wales Golf Club.
The win followed Scott’s worst season on the PGA Tour, where he made only nine cuts in 19 tournaments and had just one top-10 finish.
“I always thought I’d get my chance,” Scott said. “It’s so bizarre, this game, that off the back of such a bad year I finally played good enough to win down here.
“I’ve worked really hard even though I’ve played terrible all year. But it pays off. You’ve got to stick with it.”
Ana Ivanovic was walking the course with Adam for several hours. She was taking a little break from her concerted training program as she prepares for the 2010 season. Being content and happy could be the best medicine for both athletes.
