Bubba Watson reminiscent of the gap he had on the tree during the last hole of his 2022s of his gentlemen.

They say there are no pictures on the score card, but Damm should ever have. Because at the highest level of the game, especially in Augusta NationalImages only increase the absurdity of the talent of the best players in the world.
For the twice sample of masters Bubba watsonKnown for bending the ball as desired, it was actually a straight ball through an impossible corridor he calls “one of the best shots of my life.”
Thing is, practically no one remembers it.
I do, thankfully – and for three years I have wondered how he drew it. Finally, I had the opportunity to ask him about it.
Thinking again, I was probably obsessed with Watson’s end in 2022 because I had chosen it in a master pool and had to make the cut. On Friday of that week, he was in danger of an early rest. Watson was three more and a clear shot from the cut line – a good From the cut, as he said – and tied his ball to 18 so far, how much he would have ended up in the 10th hole, if he did not fall into the pine.
Pinestrel areas closest to Augusta National are often violated or cleaned from the leaves during the tournament week, keeping the conditions pristine, but if you miss so far, you will find more pinecones, immature areas, larger bushes and larger leaves – that is exactly what Watson faced while grinding for the cut line.
“It was a big leaf”, which made this blow so difficult, Watson told me recently. Perhaps from some magnolia trees, he realized, whose foliage was rejected at ground level under cold and windy conditions. A leaf sat above its ball and removing it between a pine needle clutter is likely to cause it to move and suffer a penalty. To its left was a low -hanging branch from a flowering tree, a massive obstacle that kept it not to appear on the highway.
Watson played from (approximately) the red dot in an instant for the birds.

“I can chip backward Below the 50 yards of the road, “Watson said, throwing hands left and right as a defender by a listener diagram.” This would leave me 230 yards, give or get. I really didn’t have a blow in 10 (way out). I was like, I took place behind her, and I got this gap. “
He was telling the sky now, in a string of direction in the southern Florida, lighting an imaginary hole in the branches of the Trees of George that was recreating from memory. The distance was 180 yards, he thought, maybe 190, playing 10 yards uphill but LOT Downwind. “My goal was to hit (the wedge raised) as much as I can through that gap and I hope the wind gets it,” he said.
As long as he lost the trees, he thought, he would find his ball somewhere on the right track and prove his destiny from there. Hit the trees and crawls double (and a lost cut) crawls true Quick especially when you consider it sheet.
“You have all these ideas,” he continued. “And then I crossed it and I can’t see my ball. I am so (looking through the trees, again on the leaves above his ball, again through the trees). I said,” I can’t see it, I’m still going to it because that’s what I do. “”
Perfect phrase that includes Bubba Golf. I’m still going to go for it because that’s what I do. Well, here’s the result:
The ball started in the sky, cleaned the trees and rode the wind before falling on the right green end, dancing several times before going to … one leg. The television camera after 18 Green tried to zoom in to see Watson’s reaction, but you can’t see it in the tree. All that was evident was his kadi in a white jumpsuit with an immature fuss, snatching the club from his player’s wizard. At that moment, Caddy and Player knew the goal was good but just no HOW Well
Visuals are staggering, especially those pictures By (1) Watson on top of his back, more likely to swing and lose on a leaf, and (2) finally at 12 seconds later and 12 inches from the hole. As I would come to discover in our conversation, this is just one of the four shooting on the Augusta National Esca’s Watson Mountain. The most famous, down to the right side of 10 during the play off in its 2012 masters victory, but the other two are more a mystery.
