Newly married Scott gives his fading No. 1 hopes a boost


PONTE VEDRA BEACH Florida (Reuters) - A day after disclosing details of his secret wedding last month, Adam Scott gave himself an outside chance to end this week's Players Championship as world number one for the first time.

Needing to finish no worse than joint 16th on Sunday to dislodge Tiger Woods from the top spot, the Australian world number two clawed his way into the top 30 at the TPC Sawgrass by shooting a three-under-par 69 in Saturday's third round.
