The 27 year old Australian, Adam Scott, won his second Qatar Masters title for the second time with an astonishing and amazing 11 under par 61. Scott won his first Qatar Masters title six years ago back in 2002.

He started this years tournament three behind the overnight leader Johan Edfors, but then birdied the first five holes and just kept going without no turning back. Scott then went for a safety at the last and then a par five put him 20 under to give him his sixth European title.

Scotts golf was just extraordinary and a hat trick of birdies from the 10th allowed him a much tighter grip on the tournament and gave a much bigger chance of tying the European Tour record for having the fewest final round by a champion. He then needed a birdie in the last to equal Jamie Spence’s 12 under par 60 that he accomplished back in 1992 at the European Masters. Unable to do so, Scott decided to lay up short of the water and sand guard the front of the green and then had to settle for a par after his pitch was a little off line.

Henrik Stenson and Scot Colin Montgomerie were doing fairly well but were unable to keep up with Scott and beat his play. Scott expressed that Henrik did everything right during the tournament and should have been the one to take home the title but keeping up for the lead was somewhat over whelming, however the 2006 winner, Henrik, had to deal with being the second runner up.

At the beginning of last week Scott was placed as the world’s number eight in the ranking but will shoot up three more spots when the new ranking are released.
