Bubba Watson First to Hit into the Water on No 17

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – PGA Tour pros lost their perfect game at the 17th island hole Friday when Bubba Watson stepped to the tee.

The first 65 players teeing it up at No. 17 avoided the water, but Watson ended the streak, knocking his shot over the back of the green and into the lake. In the very next group there, Matt Bettencourt rinsed his shot short in the water. Midway through the afternoon, they’re the only players to get wet there in the second round. Fourteen shots were rinsed at No. 17 in the first round.
