Bubba Watson overpowered the course over the final nine holes after going out in a super impressive 33 on the first nine. He shot 69, just like he did in 2012 when he won his first one, and beat the 20-year-old prodigy Jordan Spieth by three.
The script flipped four shots worth on Nos. 8-9 as Watson went birdie-birdie and Spieth went bogey-bogey and we got a taste of what was to come.
The fight ended early on the second nine, too as Watson survived the first three holes then lit No. 13 on fire with a 366-yard drive and easy birdie.
