Fellow Masters champion, Bubba Watson has purchased the former Isleworhth house that belonged to Tiger Woods.

Watson confirmed he is moving his wife, Angie and adopted son Caleb from Scottsdale in Arizona to join a large number of fellow PGA Tour players residing in the Orlando area.

“It’s true,” said Watson straight after posting a second-round 69 at the WGC-Cadillac Championship to move into a share of fifth place on nine under par and just four shots behind the former home owner.

“I looked at probably 50 houses before I looked at Tiger’s.  A lot of the houses there are old, and we ended up changing everything. We probably saved maybe five percent of it. We built it all around Caleb. There are like three playrooms.”

In a lengthy interview in the April issue of Golf Magazine, Watson said he’s always lived in gated communities, and a 2012 incident in which the Masters champion and his wife were chased through traffic on their way home only reminded him why.

“We’ve seen things in the news—our world is crazy,” Watson said, “and it’s nice to have that piece of mind when we take walks or go outside.”

He will join several Orlando-based Tour pros, including Graeme McDowell, Ian Poulter and Justin Rose.

“The one I’ve talked to the most is Charles Howell,” added Watson.

“He has two kids and talked about how family-oriented Isleworth is. They got programs for kids, tennis camps, golf camps, family night every Wednesday night for dinner. They were all things we wanted to be involved in, and the golf course is really good, too, for me to practice.”

As for playing later this month in the Tavistock Cup, Watson said: “If I make the team—I’ve got to qualify. Hopefully winning the Masters will help me get in.”
