Scott's triumph comes on the back of his Australian PGA Championship success, and he has the chance to match Robert Allenby — who claimed the triple crown in 2005 — if he can win the Australian Open in a fortnight's time.
"Well it's looking good now," Scott, who has already won the career triple crown, said. "I think it's a funny one because I play an event in between. We're talking triple crown, it will certainly be on my mind when I get to Sydney.

"I think it's going to be a lot of fun for me to try and do that because I remember how big a deal it was for Robert who did achieve that, I think it was 2005, he did it.
"Hopefully there's a lot of excitement when we go to Sydney about going for the three events and it would be nice to do it off the back of a World Cup."
Scott's victory was not all plain sailing after an inconsistent final round that consisted of four birdies, two bogeys and a double-bogey at 14.
At one stage he trailed Kuchar by two shots, but a birdie at 15, coupled with the American dropping a shot at 16 brought the two players level, before Kuchar carded a double-bogey at the last.
Despite the topsy-turvy nature of the final day, Scott insists he always believed he could win, after going into the final day with a four-shot lead.
"Even if I was one shot behind I knew there was going to be an opportunity down 15 and I needed to hang in there," he added. "I mean 14 was my biggest error of the day, but that's the advantage of starting four in front I guess."
Fiji's Vijay Singh threatened a comeback with four birdies in the opening six holes, but consecutive bogeys at seven, eight and nine curtailed his progress and he had to settle for third.
Australian Nick Cullen finished fourth, while compatriot Matthew Griffin finished tied fifth with New Zealand's Ryan Fox.
