Fore! More Things

1. Adam Scott is skipping the WM Phoenix Open in two weeks because he made a scheduling mistake and thought it preceded Pebble Beach instead of following it. Scott, who went home to Australia, did not want to return for one designated event in Phoenix and then take a week off. As it is, he will get an opt-out for the Phoenix event and return at Riviera for the Genesis Invitational.

2. The Farmers Insurance Open will begin on Wednesday and is the only PGA Tour event with a Saturday finish. It is the second straight year the tournament has opted to finish early in order to avoid going up against the AFC and NFC championship games on Sunday.

3. Richard Bland tied for 10th at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, the highest finish among the LIV Golf members who competed in the DP World Tour event won by Victor Perez. Henrik Stenson tied for 20th.

4. There are 73 days until the first round of the Masters.
