Bubba Watson had a very Bubba Watson-like week that ended with this third win in five tries at the Genesis Open on Sunday. Watson finished at 12 under after a 2-under 69 in the final round and beat contenders Tony Finau and Kevin Na each by two strokes.

 

He shot a 6-under 65 on Saturday to assume control of the tournament before that 69 on Sunday. It helped him become the third golfer ever to win three times at Riviera.

 

The win is Watson's first since he took this tournament two years ago.

 

Rory McIlroy (T-20) finished strong in what was an otherwise unfulfilling week. He played the par-5 1st hole in 6-under over four rounds. He played the other 68 holes in 3 over. The problem this week wasn't necessarily the putter, either. McIlroy finished in the top 45 in the field in strokes gained putting despite missing multiple four-footers in the same round on Friday.
