Bubba Watson takes the 2nd Round lead

bubba

We're half-way through the Masters Tournament and Bubba Watson has taken the lead. In round 1 he scored a 69 and was a very close second place, as Bill Haas led with a 68. Watson took the lead, scoring 68 in the second round. 

Bubba is, like many of us, a big fan of the Titleist Pro V1x.An excellent choice from the 2012 winner of the Masters. That's right. Bubba won the Masters just 2 years ago. 

An impressive fact about Watson is that he hasn't had any professional golf lessons. He received a lesson from his father, at age 6, to get started. After that point he became a self-taught golfer. 

We'll see if Bubba and his Pro V1x can make it through rounds 3 & 4 in first place.

I had to laugh during the broadcast of the Canadian Open when there was a logjam at 10-under in the second round and one of the broadcasters on The Golf Channel referred to Canada as the home of lumberjacks. Yes, Canada is big into logging, albeit mainly in British Columbia, but as someone who lives in Canada, I wouldn’t say we are the home of lumberjacks. Maple syrup is more like it.

Imagine standing less than three feet from the hole trying to make a putt to close out your round. Now imagine doing that playing in a tournament. Now imagine you’re a professional player in a major championship and the winner’s share is $2.5 million. If you watched the final of last week’s LPGA U.S. Women’s Open, you know where I’m going with this.

If you are a fan of anything to do with sports about France, this is a great time. Tennis fans are enjoying the French Open. Say what you will about the hard-court tennis at the U.S. Open or the grass court tennis at Wimbledon, but the clay court tennis at Roland Garros is special. Just the look and texture about the clay makes this annual major something special.
