Bubba Watson is currently enjoying his break after the conclusion of the LIV season. Recently, he had an adorable date night with his daughter.

Watson is a two-time Masters champion and a multiple-time winner on the PGA Tour. He now plays on the LIV Golf circuit and is the captain of the Rangegoats GC team.

On Friday, October 11, Watson posted a picture with his daughter Dakota on X, along with a couple of clips from their night at the Grand Ole Opry, where they enjoyed the Chapel Hart band.

"Daddy-daughter date night with Dakota at the @opry @ChapelHartBand," he wrote.

Earlier this year, Watson's daughter was also present at the Masters Tournament's Par 3 contest where she stole the show with her putting skills.


Who is in Bubba Watson's family?

Bubba Watson and his wife, Angie, have a love story that spans over two decades. The couple met as student-athletes at the University of Georgia, where Bubba was on the golf team and Angie played basketball. After dating for a couple of years, they married in 2004.

Due to Angie’s infertility issues, they chose to adopt and welcomed their son, Caleb, in 2012. A couple of years later, they adopted their daughter, Dakota.

Following his 2014 Masters win, Bubba Watson credited his son for giving him perspective.

"Golf is a game. When I play bad, he doesn't care," he said as per CBS. "When I play great, he doesn't care. All he cares about is, 'Daddy, give him a hug, Daddy pick him up.'"
"Looking at my son, I want to be as Christ-like as possible. I'll never be perfect, I'm always going to mess up, but my whole goal is to be the role model for my son," he added.

On the professional front, Watson finished 53rd in the LIV Golf season standings and fell into the Drop Zone. While he is in danger of losing his membership, he may still save his card if his team considers him suitable for business purposes.

The 45-year-old golfer had just a couple of top-25 finishes this season, with a T15 finish at LIV Golf Las Vegas being his best result of the year. Additionally, he missed the cut at Augusta National.
