“I can’t believe we’re playing for a $20 million purse It’s gone nuts,” said Adam Scott once. This sentence might make it seem like he has never seen or heard of that kind of money. But the reality is that Adam Scott is among the top five richest golfers in the world. Scott was in his first year as a professional in 2000 when he missed the cut in The International at Castle Pines, a course that sits at 6,200 feet above sea level.

It has been over two decades since he began playing on the PGA Tour, and the 44-year-old has earned half of his net worth from playing golf. As of 2024, his net worth is a whopping $60 million. He earns income from various sources, including tournament winnings, sponsorship deals, appearance fees, and course design. But where does all his wealth go?

Adam Scott’s Love for Private Jets

Eight years after turning pro, he bought a 1989 Gulfstream IV, which must have cost him somewhere between $3.80 million and $4.20 million. Like other players, his jet is seen landing at Augusta National every year. The first time he flew in one, he realized that it saved so much time and energy that the Aussie player had to get one. “The less stress on the body the better when your body’s a tool of the trade,” he said emphasizing how it has helped improve his game.

Two years later, he bought the 2010 Gulfstream G450, which is priced between $10.75 million and $15,39 million. Like many other golfers, he also has Marquis Jet cards, which he uses to fly on a Citation Excel. This allows the golfers to travel together, and even the baggage is not an issue. He once even took Min Woo Lee, who was so fascinated that he said, “His plane is on my vision board.”

But private jets aren’t the only lavish aspect of the 44-year-old’s life. Apart from jets, Adam Scott also has a deep fascination with where he lives.

Adam Scott has a house next to Sergio Garcia in Switzerland

Adam Scott currently has two properties: one in The Bahamas and the other in Crans-sur-Sierre, Switzerland. Significantly tied to his golfing career, he lives on a street named Woods Drive in The Bahamas. His house in Switzerland is called “Turnberry,” while another house he owns in Sanctuary Cove on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, is named “Muirfield Place”.

The house in Australia is among his primary properties, as he was born and raised there. It is situated on a large piece of land with stunning views of the ocean. The house even features amenities like a pool, tennis court, and gym. However, it is in the house in Switzerland, next to Sergio Garcia, where he spends most of his time presently. It has views of the Swiss Alps.

As of 2024, he is currently the seventh highest-paid golfer, and while that doesn’t make him a billionaire, it certainly places him among the wealthiest in the sport.
