Bubba Watson is in his home state of Florida for the Tim Tebow Foundation Celebrity Golf Classic less than a week after winning the 2012 Masters. Watson brought a gift for the New York Jets quarterback and presented it to Tebow on Friday night in the TPC Sawgrass Clubhouse during the gala the night before the celebrity tournament.
Bubba Watson Presents Tim Tebow With A Gift
Watson gave Tebow his player badge from Sunday’s winning round of the Masters, which oddly enough was No. 15, Tebow’s jersey number.
“I knew I’d see Tim in a week,” Watson told the Florida Times-Union on Friday night. “I told my caddie, I’m going to keep it unopened, and I’m going to hand it to him. I just felt like I should give it to him. It’s his football number, and I thought he might want it more now that I won.”
Tebow appreciated the gift he received from Watson. “It was very special,” Tebow told the Times-Union. “He didn’t have to do anything like that. He’s just an amazing guy. He’s been so supportive of me and my foundation.”
