Scott’s major breakthrough

Adam Scott may not stretch to putting Vegemite sandwiches on the Champions’ Dinner menu at next year’s Masters but do not be surprised if there is more than a little taste of Australia brought to the table at Augusta National in 2014.

“Meat pies, why not?” said a jubilant Scott after halting Argentina’s Angel Cabrera’s bid for a second green jacket on Sunday night and claiming a first one for Australia after so many near misses.

And who would deny the Queenslander his pies, a shrimp on the barbie and a crate of Brisbane’s XXXX lager, for the 32-year-old did more than just stop Cabrera, he fully deserved his moment of triumph.
