Adam Scott has admitted that his form late in tournaments has been the reason for his inability to record victories in 2014.
The Australian has the opportunity to replace Tiger Woods as world number one at the Players Championship this week, but he claims that the prospect of reaching the top of the rankings has not been having an impact on his performances.
"I'm here to win golf tournaments," Scott told reporters. "That's been the goal and from that you can get to number one in the world if you win enough, often enough.
"I've had a couple of good chances this year already and haven't been able to pull it off, not because it's been weighing on my mind but I just wasn't sharp enough playing the last couple of rounds at a few events."
Henrik Stenson, Matt Kuchar and Bubba Watson all have the opportunity to become world number one at TPC Sawgrass.
