Bubba Watson’s daughter sparks celebrations at The Masters with incredible putt

Bubba Watson's daughter showed off her impressive golfing skills with an excellent putt at the Par 3 Contest.

The competition is an annual tradition of The Masters and is played on the Wednesday of the week of the prestigious tournament, and it was Dakota Watson who produced one of its best moments.

Players invite their wives, girlfriends and children to join them on the course as the excitement builds up for the upcoming weekend.

Family members serve as caddies at Augusta National, with Watson's daughter carrying his clubs for the day.

And with Bubba highly-regarded as one of the world's top golfers, it's clear to see that his skills run in the family.

When tasked with sinking the putt, Dakota expertly nudged it down the putting green and waited in anticipation as it rolled towards the hole.

Soon enough, Dakota's shot found its target and she celebrated with her arms in the air, with the crowd also cheering in excitement.

Bubba, who appeared to film the shot on his phone, was quick to show his delight by giving his daughter a hug after her achievement.

He will be hoping to have similar success on the iconic course this weekend as he makes his 16th appearance at The Masters 2024.

The 45-year-old, who missed the cut last year, arrives as a two-time champion having won the Green Jacket in 2012 and 2014.

A total of 89 players are set to compete for this year's crown which is being defended by Jon Rahm, who sat at the top of the table for his Champions Dinner on Tuesday night.

Scottie Scheffler, who won in 2022, is one of the favourites to claim victory this time around in Augusta, Georgia.

Tiger Woods, Rickie Fowler and Rory McIlroy are just some of the other notable names who are set to tee off on Thursday.

talkSPORT's Sean O'Brien and Gabbie Partington will have regular updates from The Masters throughout the afternoon and evening each day this weekend.
