Bubba Watson....Fan or not a fan?

[Perfect Slicer]

Every time this bigot loses is a victory for humanity. He represents hatred and bias.

Because...?

Quotes from Bubba? Any evidence that he represents bias and hatred other than he is from the south, and bought a cool car from a popular TV show that has a flag on the roof? I really am curious, because I have not personally seen any such evidence.

agree ... seems a bit HARSH to me (the word "hatred" is overused in society today - any use of that word in public in relation to a PGA player I would question the source)

Time to turn off MSNBC chief.

Guys, don't feed the trollish comments.

[Windmill]

I was a fan of him when this happened.

[jefkve]

I'm a fan...very talented golfer that gives me hope that someday someone will mistake my slice for a Bubba-esque "power fade"

[Brian96]

I'm a fan.

Considering his background, developed his own game and earned everything he has.

Definitely didn't grow up with a silver spoon like most guys on the tour did. Public school, Community college...

Fan of the pink driving man!

[RiddleMeThis]

Fan.  Gives me hope that you can be great simply working at your swing (no offense golf pros).

[newtogolf]

He can be whiney sometimes but overall he's fun to watch.  He's a lefty so that cuts him some additional slack with me.

[MacGruber]

I love Bubba.   I think he's fun to watch when he's in contention and it doesn't hurt he's a lefty as well.

Always been a fan of Bubba. I find him very entertaining. I like the unique swing. He obviously has ADD and unfortunately he doesn't have it under control. I get frustrated when he gets a little too "worked up", but it will take a lot more than that for me to dislike him. From what I understand is that he and his caddies are buddies. I kind of view their interactions similar to brother/sibling interactions. I take it with a grain of salt.

They can laugh at themselves:

He is a creative shot maker. He is lefty, uses pink clubs, buttons up his shirts, has attitude.  That makes him colorful in a sport that can be drab.  Pro golfers have a code of conduct, dress, and demeanor that is remarkably narrow.  Guys like Daly, Ricky, and Bubba greatly enrich the sport.  I miss Ray Floyd, ChiChi, and Lee Trevino.

Funny shit.  Not a fan but glad to see him in China, doing the promotions and even appearing to enjoy them. I'm sure the $2MM (or whatever it was) appearance fee helps but still, it's a commitment to promote golf across the globe and I salute him for it.
