Harmon says Scott best under 30

Butch Harmon has laid the law down--or so he thinks. In a recent interview, Tiger Woods' former swing coach told the world that he thinks Adam Scott is the best player under 30 and can challenge Tiger for the best in the world.

I'm sorry...come again? Ok, Butchy, pass me that moonshine...yes, yes, I know, there are funny clowns in the corner, aren't they? Yes, there sure are!!!

Seriously, Butch...seriously...I mean, come on, you coach Phil Mickelson, for pete's sakes? How in the world can you say that Scott, although ranked number 5 in the world and fresh off a record-setting round at the Qatar Masters, is in the same league as Woods? It's one thing to say that Mickelson and Vijay Singh are near the top and can challenge Woods, but this is something that is a very strong claim. I think there's too much parity in golf, with guys like KJ Choi, Rory Sabbatini, J.B. Holmes, and other upstarts to say that Scott is single-handedly the one who can play with Woods over the next few years. Sure, he's good--but jeesh! What a statement!
