If you’re looking for a golfer with the most picturesque golf swing, there might not be anyone better than Adam Scott.
It’s smooth and fluid, resembling poetry in motion — which makes it quite popular amongst Instagram viewers anytime the one-time major champ posts himself swinging a club.
Adam Scott reveals his favorite swings to watch
While people typically admire Scott’s golf swing, the 44-year-old Aussie also gawks over a few of his own peers’, and he sat down with GOLF’s Claire Rogers to spill some details.
“There are lots of guys’ swings I like watching,” Scott says. “Right now, everyone loves watching Ludvig Aberg because it’s easy to watch. He makes it look pretty simple, it has great tempo, it’s powerful, and the lines look great — so it’s easy to like.”
The 24-year-old Aberg is a star in the making, with many believing he’s got the game (and mental fortitude) to become the face of the PGA Tour. It doesn’t hurt that he’s got one of the smoothest swings in the world — and that Scott joins millions of others who love to watch it.
But Scott also mentioned a few other golf swings that helped influenced his game over the years.
“I love watching Rory [McIlroy] play. The power and the balance is appealing to me,” he adds. “I love watching Dustin Johnson swing the club as well.
“But growing up, big inspirations for me were Greg Norman, Fred Couples, and Ernie Els. Once Tiger [Woods] turned pro, everyone was obviously watching him. Those are the swings that really stand out to me that had an impact and, at times, I’ve tried to mimic.”
