Hey there, fellow tennis enthusiasts It’s your girl Mia Johnson-Carter here, living the dream in Miami. Today, I’m super excited to dive into a fascinating story from the world of golf. While tennis is my passion, I always love hearing about other sports and their stories. Let’s talk about Bubba Watson, a golfer who’s been making waves in the Asian Series.
Bubba Watson, captain of the RangeGoats, has been on a mission to regain his form and potentially return to LIV Golf. His impressive performance in Round 3 of the BNI Indonesian Masters has put him in third place heading into the final round. Watson’s journey is not just about winning; it’s also about giving back to the community. During this tournament, every hole-in-one will result in a donated house for a local family in need, thanks to the Habitat for Humanity Indonesia charity.
Watson’s recent ace on the par-3 11th hole with a wedge was particularly impressive. The reaction of the crowd was enough to tell him that he had done something special, even though he couldn’t see it from his position. “It was a perfect pitching wedge,” Watson said as quoted by LIV Golf. “We couldn’t see it. I didn’t believe them (when people said it was in the hole) because you didn’t really hear like, a roar that kept going… I just didn’t believe it until I got the ball out of the hole.”
Watson’s excitement about the hospitality and love for golf in Indonesia is palpable. He feels honored to play an important role in helping local families through this charity event. “The game of golf has helped tremendously around the world through all the charities that golf has brought to the table, so to be a part of that, it’s very special. It’s an honor. There’ll be a couple families that will be helped out,” Watson continued.
Richard T. Lee is currently in the lead with a total of 21-under par after shooting a third-round 6-under 66. He reflects on the break they took due to rain and thunderstorms, noting that it helped him make even better moves after the delay. The Canadian golfer hopes for an even better outcome in the final round, aiming for victory.
Ahmad Baig is in second place and knows he must try to dethrone Lee to secure a victory, which would be a huge achievement for the Pakistani golfer. Baig prefers not to go into detail about his game or expectations but emphasizes that he just wants to maintain his current rhythm.
In any case, we will have the chance to witness an interesting race and great golf. Some still give Watson the best chance because of his experience and what he has repented of in the past.
