World No. 1 golfer Jordan Spieth will be back to defend his title, having won the 2014 Australian Open, followed by the 2015 US Masters, US Open and another three PGA Tour titles. The 22 year old faces tough competition including world no.12 Adam Scott, who just missed out on his third yellow jacket at the Australian Masters last week.
