camera crews. trailing. >> go right there. love it. if it hits you. 190 miles an hour you won't feel it. >> reporter: this is bubba golf. a dash of juvenile. a dash of genius. and a full cup of cocky. >> oh, that's a par. >> come on. >> stay one up. >> reporter: are they allowed to beat you? >> they're allowed. they just can't. in ten years of playing golf with him and caddying for him, really only hit the ball bad a few times. i don't really know where that comes from. he is just a physical screenous when it comes to his aability -- genius when it comes to his ability. watson doesn't like the driving range. and hates talking about technique. he just plays. he its one of the longest hitters on tour. his drives with the playful pink club average 315 yard. he hardly ever hits the ball straight. look at that curve. look at that ball curve. everything is a hook or a slice. a fadea
3:49 am
>> pretty much everything possible on the golf course or that you thought might be impossible. fellow pro ricky fowler is also a close friend. >> it is pretty amazing what he can do. he is a freak. >> reporter: the best example of that freakish talent in one of the most famous shots in masters history. on the second hole of a playoff in 2012. watson's drive landed in the pine straw. >> when i hit in the woods. i was devastated the my shoulders went down. i was done. then i get over there when i walk done there i see the crowd has made a path so i could pull the shot off. a big hook. did it hook? oh, what a shot.
3:50 am
>> it really is not that hard of a shot for bubba. >> reporter: come on. >> hear me out. for bubba to hook a golf ball 40 yard that's not that hard to do. he does that for fun. if we were playing golf for fun. i would say good shot. i have seen him do the shot before. >> reporter: the shot in 2012 produced a two-putt par. [ cheers and applause ] and his first masters victory. angie had to watch from home with infant son caleb who they had adopted two weeks earlier. they were both there to see watson win his second green jacket two years later. [ applause ] they have since adopted a daughter, dakota. >> going to take the slope. could it be? >> he has won four tournaments in the last two years. >> how about that? >> he has climbed to numb bar

four in the world. >> the legend is you never took a golf lesson. >> still haven't. >> reporter: is that true? >> yeah. the physical game is easy. that sound bad. but it is easy to me. i can do that. i can hit it far. i can curve it. i got the shots. it is mentally being at that moment right then. >> reporter: how hard is it to control the mental stuff for you? >> it is getting better. again a process. learning process. i am getting better at it. >> reporter: doesn't always look that way. >> you are telling me that is the right yard. >> reporter: a few petulant outbursts have alienated a lot of people. in hartford in 2013, microphones picked him up criticizing ted scott for the 9 iron he recommended. all of a sudden everybody went, bubba watson is a jerk. >> well, so with me -- i got to get my anger out. not let it linger. just get it out. and teddy knows, teddy, he always jokes, ten second. give bubba ten seconds. he is good. >> reporter: ten second for bubba but left a lasting
3:52 am
impression with some fans. >> my wish is that people wouldn't just be quick to judge over that moment in hartford. i will say this on tv, about, i would say 80% of the guys bash their caddies verbally on the tour. >> reporter: 80%? >> guys labeled nicest guy on tour. bashing his caddie. it's pressure. you can't take it personally. if you are thin-skinned. you don't need to caddie. you will get it. part of the job. >> reporter: perhaps, when pga players were asked last year which of their fellow golfers they would be least likely to help in a fist fight. watson finished first. >> first time i heard this question, this poll came out was -- nobody wants to help bubba in a fight. everybody thinks i am tough, i like it. my caddie, teddy said that's not what they mean. >> reporter: you missed it, bud. >> that's what i am going with. he said people don't like you. the reason, teddy told me the reason they dent like you they don't understand you. because you are nuts.
3:53 am
to hear that people didn't like you? >> no. >> reporter: bubba watson insists he is not trying to rub people the wrong way. it is just tough for him to be in his own skin sometimes. >> i have a lot of mental issues that i just am so fearful things, which i shouldn't be, right. scared of heights. scared of buildings falling on me. scared of dark. scared of crowds. those are my biggest issues. >> reporter: how do you reconcile that when you have to go out there and play golf with hundreds of people all around you? >> bubba! >> reporter: in between holes is really scary to me. because the there are so many people that close to you. >> reporter: scary? >> yes. >> reporter: what are you scared of? >> just cared of people. in general. >> he is scared of everything. everything. >> reporter: ted scott learned of bubba's fears the first time they worked together ten years ago. >> there was a 10-year-old kid who asked for his autograph out in the middle of nowhere. nobody knew who bubba was at the time. he was a rookie on tour. this kid walked up to him. he kind of ignored him like he
3:54 am
didn't see him. i thought, man what a jerk. as i got to know him. i realized -- even that young kid coming up to him, as someone bubba doesn't know is a fearful situation for him. it sounds crazy. but it is crazy because it is not our fear. >> reporter: he is legitimately fearful of people he doesn't know. >> absolutely. >> reporter: that would be enough to deal with. watson's nerve endings seem to be closer to the surface than most people. >> do you see it? >> bubba notices everything. look over your right shoulder, a guy with a red shirt, blue cap. his phone underneath the thing. there are 3,000 people. i can't find him. no, right there, man. >> reporter: he did it with us in a break in our interview. >> when we are doing the interview do you hear them clicking a pen and tapping. >> reporter: do you? >> hear them all the time. can they hear them on microphone. this thing over here flickering. hear that? >> reporter: no. >> gosh. >> you can see the full story on our website, cbs news.com. when the "cbs overnight news" returns. we'll introduce you to some
