Bubba Watson Wins The Title Celebrates At Waffle House

Bubba Watson Wins The Title Celebrates At Waffle House[/b]



Bubba Watson claimed his second Masters title in three years with a three stroke victory on Sunday.

Watson surprised many with his win; after winning the Masters in April 2012, the champion did not win the rest of the year and remained winless throughout 2013. Coming into this year's tournament his name was not generally be touted as one of the favorites. He entered the final round tied with 20-year-old Jordan Spieth, where the two men went back and forth for the first nine holes, before the left-handed veteran took a two-shot lead. He did not relinquish his first place position as he wrapped up the back nine. Leading up to the tournament, Watson's pastor, Judah Smith of City Church in Seattle, (who is also known for his close relationship with pop star Justin Bieber,) suggested that the pro golfer read Philippians 4:11: I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. Smith reminded Watson that as a kid, you dreamed about playing on the PGA Tour. You dreamed about playing in the Masters. You're doing that. Why don't you just go ahead and rejoice in the circumstances of your life?

Smith and his wife Chelsea joined Watson and his wife Angie as they celebrated his victory at the southern fast food chain Waffle House on Sunday night. In 2012, one week before he won his first Masters, Watson and Ball adopted their first child, Caleb, who recently turned two.

In addition to gaining a second green jacket, Watson won $1.62 million in prize money, it's not the first time Watson has given the southern breakfast institution a nod. After winning the Masters in 2012, he said he was considering serving Waffle House at the Champions Dinner at Augusta the following year. Watson did not follow through with his plans. It's also not the first time a Masters champ has given an unexpected plug to a food business.
