Adam Scott clinched his second PGA Tour title in two weeks with victory in the WGC Cadillac Championship

(CNN)He banked almost $3 million for a couple of weeks’ work, but Adam Scott put his latest PGA Tour win down to karma.

The Australian’s wayward approach to the final hole Sunday clung to the steep bank of a water hazard — a few feet to the left, or possibly one more bounce, and it would have ended in a watery grave.

Instead, Scott was able to get up and down for par to seal a one-shot victory over Bubba Watson to clinch the WGC Cadillac Championship for a second title in a fortnight.

Scott began three shots behind overnight leader Rory McIlroy but carded what he described as an “ugly and good” round of 69, culminating in that good fortune over the water at the last.

“I had to aim left and the wind just wasn’t really moving it. I wasn’t surprised it carried, but I was surprised it stayed up in the hazard. Thank goodness for that,” said the former world No. 1.
