An unaware Bubba Watson signs autograph for his PGA Tour pro friend

Pay attention, Bubba.

One of Bubba Watson’s closer friends on the PGA Tour is Chesson Hadley. The two often play practice rounds together and they did so this week at The Players Championship.

But when Bubba, and many of these pros, go to sign autographs, they’re not exactly focused on making eye contact and having human interaction. So Bubba obliviously rifled through the autograph line, head down signing as much as he could without even noticing his millionaire friend and the pro he played a practice round with laughing at him.
