Adam Scott happy to be out of limelight

Former champion Adam Scott admits that he is happy for the likes of Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods to dominate the spotlight heading into The Masters.

Adam Scott has admitted that he is relieved to be going under the radar heading into this week's Masters.

The 2013 champion is among the favourites to win at Augusta, but Rory McIlroy's Grand Slam hunt and the return of Tiger Woods are dominating the spotlight.

Scott, who will play alongside Dustin Johnson and Antonio Murdaca in his first two rounds, is happy to allow his rivals the attention for now, but hopes to be the name on everybody's lips come the end of the first Major of 2015.

"There are big stories in golf this week and I certainly am not missing being one of them at the moment," he told reporters.

"But hopefully that will change on Sunday."

The Australian, ranked number six in the world, finished in a tie for 14th when defending the green jacket last year.
