Don’t cheer: Tiger at Presidents Cup, Scott urges fans

SYDNEY: Australian Adam Scott knows fans at the Presidents Cup will be excited to see Tiger Woods play, but he has urged them not cheer for the golf superstar or anyone else on the US team.Scott has played in eight editions of the biennial matchplay tournament and is the only member of the International team who appeared in 2011, which was also at Royal Melbourne where next week’s tournament is being held.Woods, who is playing captain this time round, secured the winning point in 2011 and Scott said the Australian crowd were too nice. “Last time it was too friendly,” he told News Corp newspapers on Tuesday.“We want the home-crowd advantage, and I’ll be disappointed if they are cheering for Tiger or anyone on the US team.”
