Winner: Bubba Watson
Around the wider world of golf: Lots going on this weekend! Karrie Webb got Win #40 at the ISPS Handa Women's Australian Open on the LPGA/LET/ALPG; Anthony Summers won the Coca-Cola Queensland PGA Championship on the Australasian Tour; Kirk Triplett won the ACE Group Classic on the Champions Tour; Alex Cejka won the Pacific Rubiales Colombia Championship on the Web.com Tour; and Thomas Aiken won the Africa Open on the ET.
It turned into a adorable shot captured by the CBS cameras. There changed into little Caleb Watson status beside mom Angie at the 18th green, his palms raised and chanting, "Yay, Daddy!"
He was a piece premature -- Bubba changed into still inside the 18th fairway, waiting to hit his 2d shot -- but it's a measure of the way a whole lot Bubba's lifestyles has changed in the years for the reason that he remaining gained on the 2012 Masters. Here's the little man, in a photograph from the Seattle PI web page:
Perhaps Bubba has been out of the winner's circle for multiple years but he absolutely hasn't forgot the way to put on a show. A couple of weeks back in Scottsdale, he came close to triumphing. This week he flippantly shot two bogey-loose 64s at the weekend to scorch the field. Just think about that -- he became at -1 after two rounds and Sang-Moon Bae led at -9...
But it became Bubba won by using two at -15. That's amazing, specially considering how firm the veggies played on Sunday.
Does this put Bubba lower back inside the discussion for this 12 months's Masters? Perhaps. We want to see what he does over the following few weeks. But he's virtually going to get more interest now than he become getting ultimate week!
In the intervening time, I actually have a sparkling Limerick Summary for the new champ and his son. Well executed, Bubba!
For Bubba, the lengthy drought has ended.

Bubba did what son Caleb intended! The top photo came from the front page at PGATOUR.com.
