Watson wins second green jacket, Stricker struggles

April 14, 2014 By Bill Scott

Bubba Watson won his second green jacket in the last three years on Sunday, firing a final round 3-under par 69 to beat Jordan Spieth and Jonas Blixt by three shots.

Watson finished at 8-under-par 280 and earned more than $1.6 million for the win.  After his win, he spent time high-fiving fans around the 18th green before making his way to the clubhouse.

Spieth had a two-shot lead after seven holes but shot a 37 on the back nine to finish with an even par 72.  When Spieth needed to make putts, he failed, subsequently never really pushing Watson down the stretch. [Read more…]

advantage over John Senden.

Watson won the Masters in 2012, while Senden has never finished higher than 35th.

After only three top 10 finishes a year ago, Watson already has four in 2014, including a victory in the Northern Trust Open.

Watson has been good off the tee and even better in hitting greens.  He birdied five straight holes on Friday, holes 12 through 16.

After Senden, four players are 4-shots behind Watson, including defending Masters champion Adam Scott, who shot an even par 72 on Friday.  The others, Thomas Bjorn, Jonas Blixt and Jordan Spieth.

What speaks even louder is the list of players that didn’t make the cut.  Tiger Woods isn’t playing this week because of back surgery.  He’ll be joined on the sidelines by Phil Mickelson, who missed the cut for the first time in 17 years and just the second time in 22 Masters starts. [Read more…]
