Adrenaline, Heat And An RV: Golfweek Catches Up With Bubba Watson Caddie Gabe Sauer At PGA Championship

On a hot day at Southern Hills, Golfweek’s Averee Dovsek catches up with Bubba Watson caddie Gabe Sauer after the first round of the PGA Championship in Tulsa, Okla.

 

Sauer is caddying the PGA Championship for the two-time Masters winner Watson, whose best finish at a PGA was second in 2010 at Whistling Straits. Fresh off the course at Southern Hills, Sauer discusses the following topics with Dovsek:

  • Traveling from Dallas in Watson’s RV and what they found when they arrived in Oklahoma
  • Playing in the group immediately behind Tiger Woods and the adrenaline that comes along with that
  • Starting the first round on the back nine and how the playing pace slowed as the temperatures climbed
  • Watson’s toughest shots of the round and how he managed to save par both times
  • A bold prediction for Sunday
