L.A. Story: Bubba, Jordan and Riviera Sparkle

BUBBA WATSON WON THE NORTHERN TRUST OPEN for the second time in three years on a sun-splashed Sunday at Riviera Country Club. Bubba closed with a 68 to win by 1 stroke, collecting his ninth PGA Tour victory.
"L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time and the feeling is laid back," once sang Neil Diamond.
That's true and was certainly the case for Watson after he secured his second L.A. title. And he certainly had his share of adventures during a week in Hollywood that included passing a kidney stone and winning a golf tournament where legends are made.
