Bubba Watson’s General Lee (also known as the 1969 Dodge Charger driven by the Duke brothers in 1980s TV show The Dukes of Hazard) will no longer have a Confederate flag on top.
On Thursday, the two-time Masters champion tweeted his decision to paint over it with the American flag.
All men ARE created equal, I believe that so I will be painting the American flag over the roof of the General Lee #USA

Watson, who was born in Florida and attended the University of Georgia, paid $110,000 for the General Lee at an auction in 2012.
