Does Bubba bother anyone else?

He bugs me. Not 100% sure why, but even just seeing his face and I'm instantly annoyed. Anyone else?

A little, but no biggie....heckuva golfer, fun to watch pro tracer!

Hoss7504 He bugs me.

Define "bug." If it was regarding his interview after the tournament today I did think it was a bit difficult to follow his ramblings, but I don't think the network should have put him in that position. All they should have asked him to make were a few quick comments and let it go but since the tourney ended so early they had a lot of time to fill. It was an obviously an emotional time for him. I really think Bubba was serious about being on the brink of retirement and the two recent wins including the win today with his mother there convinced him that he is not ready to retire yet. The media put too much pressure on him after the round and I don't think that he was comfortable with that.

I think he gets emotional tying his shoes. I like him, but it's a little much for me.

He was voted the,"Least liked" by his peers.

I like Bubba - he does his own thing and owns it. Johnny Miller makes me want to throw shit at my TV.

Bubba is socially awkward and obviously uncomfortable being in front of the mic/camera talking.

Many have speculated that he suffers from mental illness, specifically social anxiety disorder or could be on the Spectrum for Autism. I tend to agree.

No matter, he's one hell of a player and rounding into form for who knows a third Green Jacket.

I think he bugs a lot of people, but he doesn't bug me at all.

Bubba is quirky. I'd like to think I am tolerant of all persons and their mannerisms.

He doesn't bug me in the slightest.

Can't stand him.

I’ve followed him up close a couple rounds and he is really something to see. Skinny as a rail, swings his own way, hit 300 yard cuts and flights a ball down with wedges. Such a talented player. He appears intense and emotional but I don’t ever see him cursing and throwing clubs. He like Phil does some exciting things on a golf course, I enjoy it.

I usually root for Buba cause he's not the standard cut golfer. I like to watch Daley too for same reason. He claims he's trying to be better person, so there's that. Pretty sure both need a little extra help psychological help but then again maybe who else?😄 I'll sure not cast the first stone.

Hoss7504

I totally respect his game. His mannerisms irk me u guess. I'll admit that it is super fun to watch him smash drives with that crazy swing.

He is a one of kind personality. He is one of the few guys on tour who can shape their ball either way with power and accuracy. He does not bug me, but there is something odd about him that I can't really put my finger on.

I'm not a fan, I'll say that. Those videos of him berating his caddie over bad shots he hit got me started on thinking he was a dick. Things I've read about him since trying to be better and such have softened my stance on him, but I doubt I'll ever be a fan. And how did he get the name "Bubba"? He's the least Bubba like dude you could find. Boo Weekly could be called Bubba. Watson should be nicknamed Poindexter or something.

I like Bubba. He's not boring to watch.

Bigborgel

I'm not a big fan, but like many others, I enjoy seeing him play. I suspect he may have a mild case of Ausperger's
disease, it's a variant of autism, where the person has social awkwardness and is usually withdrawn. Just my .05
diagnosis.
