6 years agoAs much as it may seem that your monitors need to be adjusted or there is a typo in the title, we can assure you that there is not. Adam Scott did indeed lead all Northern Trust competitors in strokes gained-putting for the week. The Aussie gained a staggering 8.464 strokes on the greens compared to the field en route to a share of fifth place in New Jersey. Scott, who was ranked 182nd in strokes gained-putting on the season, jumped up 32 spots into 150th after his performance at Ridgewood Country Club. More importantly, the 38-year-old jumped up 33 spots in the FedExCup standings and has nestled into the 40th position entering the Dell Technologies Championship. Scott has made four of his previous five cuts at TPC Boston, which includes two top-10 finishes. Needing to get himself into the top 30 of the standings to qualify for East Lake, expect the 13-time PGA Tour winner to continue his late-season surge. --Spencer Aguiar - RotoBaller
