Golf champ Bubba Watson is now a partial owner of a Minor League team

Bubba Watson now partial owner of Minor League team

You may know him as a two-time winner of the Masters, but now Bubba Watson's got something new to put on his business cards. On Monday, the Florida-born golfer became a minority owner of his local Reds Double-A affiliate, the Pensacola Blue Wahoos.

But that doesn't mean you'll see him hitting trick shots out of the dugout any time soon. According to MiLB.com:

"One thing I know for sure is that you won't see me out there in a uniform playing," [Watson said]. "I already asked, and they said I can't do that even if I own part of the team."

But you will be able to eat something called the "Bubba Dub," which is a "double decker grilled cheese sandwich with crispy hash browns inside." Yes, the hash browns are inside the sandwich. Even if Watson wasn't an accomplished native son, he would be celebrated for this achievement alone.
