The 120th U.S. Open will be Scott's 76th consecutive start in a major, but that streak was in jeopardy in June 2018 when the affable Australian needed to survive sectional qualifying in Columbus, Ohio, to earn his place in the field at Shinnecock Hills. In 2013, he became the first Australian to win the Masters after defeating 2007 U.S. Open champion Angel Cabrera in a playoff. Scott, who briefly attended the University of Nevada-Las Vegas, has been a global traveler since turning pro in 2000, with 29 worldwide wins, including 13 on the PGA Tour. He won the PGA Tour's Honda Classic and World Golf Championships-Cadillac Championship in consecutive weeks in March 2016. Scott shot a final-round 64 in the 2015 U.S. Open at Chambers Bay to post his best career finish in the championship (T-4). Has been a member of nine International Presidents Cup teams.
