PGA Tour star Adam Scott's private jet N716AS, a Gulfstream G450, was reportedly spotted flying up to Washington, DC on Wednesday evening. According to radaratlas2, a flight tracker on social media, the ace golfer’s airplane, worth around $38,000,000 as per SherpaReport, was headed to the Washington Dulles International Airport.
The PGA Tour's Air N795HG was also spotted at the airport. The big movement from Scott's as well as PGA’s private jets come just weeks after PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan revealed meeting with President Donald Trump at the White House regarding the proposed PGA Tour-PIF deal.
Scott and others' recent air movements hint at a second possible meeting between the parties. Further details of the alleged meeting are yet to be disclosed.
For the unversed, PGA chief Monahan met with President Donald Trump at the White House earlier in February. The details of the meeting were revealed by him and Scott, one of the player directors on the PGA Tour board.
PGA Tour officials seek President Trump's help for the PIF deal
According to the Jay Monahan’s last release, the PGA Tour officials asked President Donald Trump to get involved in the negotiations “for the good of the game, the good of the country, and for all the countries involved.”
Jay Monahan said in a statement, after meeting with the newly-elected President on February 4:
“We are grateful that his leadership has brought us closer to a final deal, paving the way for reunification of men’s professional golf.”
It is pertinent to note that the statement was signed by Monahan, Scott and Tiger Woods, who is the residing vice chairman of the commercial PGA Tour Enterprises. It remains to be seen if Woods might be attending the possible meeting with the US President on Thursday, February 20.
