The world was ready for the reemergence of the great Tiger Woods at the 76th edition of the Masters this week at the Augusta National Golf Club this week. A heated battle was expected between him and Rory McIlroy. What the world got instead was a dramatic four-day tournament that saw some incredible performances by golf's legends past, present, and future (but not named Tiger or Rory).
In the end it came down to Bubba Watson and Louis Oosthuizen in a playoff hole on Sunday.
Bubba Watson’s Amazing Masters Victory
Bubba Watson has never had golf lessons, doesn't have a swing coach, and cries a lot. Those are three things a lot of casual golf fans learned after his improbable run to the 2012 Masters title. To people who pay close attention to the PGA Tour, Bubba's victory wasn't a total shock.
Watson had won three times on tour prior to this weekend, and he is currently number one on tour for driving average at 313.1 yards. He's been a consistent player in his short PGA career, and his creativity and shot making ability are just as good as anyone out there.
He's one of the most well liked guys on the tour, and his media rounds following this victory should be a lot of fun to watch. Here are some of the great pictures from Bubba's final day of the 2012 Masters.
