VIDEO: Ken Duke closes Travelers with long birdie putt

Bubba Watson had fun with the gallery at the Travelers Championship after a fan gave Watson some advice.

With a large tree seemingly blocking the green on the second hole at TPC River Highlands, a fan told Watson that he should punch a 4-iron low and run it onto the green.

Watson did just the opposite.

He flew a high wedge over the tree and landed it about 5 feet from the hole, going on to make birdie and extend his lead in the final round. After making the shot, he turned around and sought out the outside-the-ropes caddie.
