How many more wins/majors will Bubba need before he stops crying after he wins?

If I was off 8 I'd probably cry at the state of my golf

Always been a scratch then eh?

Nah I'm only throwing around a bit of banter but seriously, us Welsh don't take jibes at our rugby team lightly..

And if you're English yes you did beat us this year, but.. 30 points to 3 will always live long in your hearts.

Not english, kiwi.

The title of this made me chuckle so much..

Where I come from, if you cry, ya better expect some stick off your mates!

Personally I dislike bubba a lot, and despite him deservedly winning yesterday, he still comes across like a big girl when he cries..

Man up Bubba.

Hmm. Guess you and your friends have never achieved anything much and never suffered any massive loss. What men you all must be!

Ah. Of course! Easter vacation for U.K. schools...

Seriously? Hang on to the result last year. That's usual though isn't it? As long as we beat England? Let me know when you manage to beat one of the Southern Hemisphere big boys.

I'll leave you with......The Telstra Stadium, 2003. Wilkinson off his right foot, thank-you very much.

Back on topic. Bubba's a bit much sometimes but I've warmed to him this year. Seems a decent enough guy who plays some pretty unique golf. Who cares if he gets emotional? I guess it'll get less if he goes on to win a good few more Majors/WGCs etc.

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

Great quote that. Where have all the great statesmen and politicians gone?

I think he will always cry.  He's just a crier and thats OK.

[robrey85]

He's such a girl, he reminds me of my coworker. I'm sure he's metro as hell too, haha. I still like watching him!

Yep, that's it.   He seems overwhelmed with his good fortune and situation today.  Nothing wrong with that and I suspect given the circumstances of his youth he feels blessed and maybe he is.

Remember Jeff Gordon's blubber fest when he won his first Cup ... granted, he was a kid and it's been a while since he's won one, but he didn't carry on like that after winning subsequent championships.   A nascar championship is about equivilent to winning a major, so there's hope for Bubba (I won't expect him to tear up in usual wins, only majors)
