He's always a strong bet at the Masters & like others have said depending on the venue can be a factor at the other majors. I have him high on my Whistling Straits list.

Actually I see him having a chance at 2 majors a year. The Masters where he can bomb and gouge and the PGA where they set it up for scoring.

He does not have the patience for the US open and the wind at The Open does not set up well for a guy who curves every shot.

I completely agree with this. When Bubba is at a course that he likes and his game is on, he is tough to beat. His length off the tee is such an advantage when he is on a course that suits his style.

Agreed. He seems to mail it in for the Opens since it doesn't suit his style.

Finished strong at Canadian Open. His record since his first win in 2010 is pretty damn good: 8 wins, 2 majors. I think he will win another major. He finished 2nd at the PGA in 2010 at .... Whistling Straits.

LOL, he was in the playoff last time the PGA was at Whistling Straits.

And, as others have said, he's a threat at the Masters.

Agree about the US and British Opens. Missed both cuts this year.

He will always be a factor at Augusta, hard to believe he wouldn't get it done there again at some point in the future. Don't see him ever winning a US Open, he could grab a British if he managed to get a calm week, which doesn't happen very often. And he will have a chance at PGAs depending on the course. I can't stand the guy (I mean what's with the top button buttoned?) but I think he will get at least one more at some point.

He might annoy me at times, but he can certainly win another over the next 5 years. The Masters is an obvious one and possibly the PGA.

Well, if that caddy of his would ever get his act together, he might have a shot.

After he blew the playoff at the PGA in 2010 I thought he would never win one. After his first Masters I thought he was a one and done fluke. After winning his second Masters I don't expect him to won more majors but I wouldn't be shocked if he did.

I don't get why people constantly do this. I have no issues with Bubba, but some folks do. Maybe "everyone" is overly critical with someone with some social hangups. I repeat this often, but no one really knows who someone is outside the ropes. He is probably a really nice guy when you get him away from his job. At work I'm different than I am at home, just like many of us.

Hopefully not. He is the biggest cry baby and blames poor shots on anything but himself. The stroke he made on the first hole on Saturday at rbc was something a 20 cap would do yet he tried to say the green was messed up.

He seems to lose it once something doesn't go his way.

Yes but yesterday he clearly overcame what was a pretty poor first 10. I fully expected him to be a non-factor after 6 or 7 holes but surprise, surprise.

Bubba Watson Cliff Notes:

1. He's an odd dude.
2. He's made lots of people mad.
3. People like to bag on him here. A lot!
4. He's a great golfer with loads of talent.
5. People often forget #4 because of #1-3.
