Incredibly, 2003 Dell Technologies Championship winner Adam Scott's bag hasn't changed all that much since his win

TPC Boston, site of this week’s THE NORTHERN TRUST, also is where Adam Scott earned his first PGA TOUR victory. To mark the milestone before the start of the FedExCup Playoffs opener, we compared Scott’s bag today to the one he used in 2003. It hasn’t changed much since that win 17 years ago.

He was just 23 years old when he beat Rocco Mediate by four strokes to collect the first of his 14 PGA TOUR victories. Scott, winner of the 2004 PLAYERS and 2013 Masters, has trusted Titleist equipment since day one, and although he has upgraded his setup with modern tech, the basic setup of his bag looks very similar to how it did in 2003. Few players on TOUR can say the same.

Let's start with the irons that he currently uses, the Titleist 680's. These irons came out in 2003, but oddly enough, it wasn't until years later (2014) that Scott put them in play consistently. These irons have more offset, a higher toe, and a bit longer blade length than other Titleist offerings. He did use them for a short time in 2003 but went through a number of Titleist offerings from 2003 to 2013 until finally settling on this set.

His wedge setup past the pitching wedge also is similar to the one he used when he won his first TOUR title. Like most players, Scott now uses a 52-, 56- and 60-degree wedge configuration instead of his old 54- and 60-degree gapping.

Scott has been a two-metal-wood player for most of his career, preferring some sort of a driving iron to replace a hybrid or a 5-wood.

Lastly, and probably the most notable element, is his putter. In 2003, he was a Scotty Cameron Newport 2 player. Now, Scott opts for a broomstick-style, MOI-heavy, mallet putter. This switch was instrumental in the Adelaide native finally triumphing at Augusta National in 2013.

Here is a look back at what Scott had in the bag for his first TOUR victory in 2003 and what he has in the bag today.
