What’s in Bubba Watson’s bag?
A flawless, bogey-free weekend saw Bubba Watson clinch his fifth PGA Tour win at the Northern Trust Open. We take a look at the tools which helped him to a two shot victory over Ryder Cup team mate Dustin Johnson.
After his victory he paid tribute to his new Ping irons, following a recent change.
He said: “It’s been 10 years since I’ve changed irons and I just went to the S55s. Somehow, my bad shots turn out good.”
