So deep in the trees right of the 10th fairway that he couldn't even see the green, Watson hooked a wedge off the pine needles from 155 yards to about 10 feet from the hole. That set up a par, good enough to beatLouis Oosthuizenon the second playoff hole.
"If I've got a swing, I've got a shot," Watson said.
It was Oosthuizen who set the tone for this wild day with a double eagle -- only the fourth in Masters history -- on the par-5 second hole when his 4-iron from 253 yards landed on the front of the green and rolled some 90 feet into the hole for a 2.
"Somehow it fell in my hands today," said Watson, who closed with a 68. "It's amazing. It's a blur, the last nine holes I don't remember anything. Somehow I guess I cried all my tears out."
Who all had him playing today?
1. Me

I finally saw Bubba's 2nd shot on 10. Heck of a stroke.
I also thought of something, how fitting that the uppity ups of the Augusta members that have to call champion for a whole year, a guy named Bubba. LOL |
