I’m on a Bubba kick, but this week seems apropos. Mostly because Bubba Watson, University of Georgia alum and former collegiate golfer, has won the PGA Tour event on this course 3 times in his career.

But first let’s recap the crazy show in the desert last week:
All 9 former ‘Dawgs who competed made the cut (Harris English withdrew with a nagging hip injury). Sepp Straka never got anything going and fell Sunday to finish solo 66th.
