Bubba Watson won his second Masters title in three seasons on Sunday, putting on another green jacket at Augusta National after a great performance in the final round and now he has the first major of the year with a 69 score in the last round and he won over Jordan Spieth by three strokes by the end of everything.
The American was the only player among the leaders to shoot a score under 70 and now he is on his way to putting together a great resume, as he now has two titles at Augusta in three years. Watson had a rough third round after going under 70 in the first two and this time he did not need a playoff, which was how he won the Masters the first time. Jordan Spieth was challenging for a while, but he couldn't keep up and now Watson is the center after all the bigger names fell off.
Tiger Woods missed his first Masters in 20 years, while Phil Mickelson missed the cut over the weekend, Rory McIlroy struggled and so did Adam Scott, last year's winner. Watson has now won multiple majors and he won himself a huge check after the club upped the winnings for the championship.
"It's overwhelming," said Watson. "This one was a lot better for me and my nerves and my family," Watson quipped.
