Bubba Watson believes improved patience and mental strength helped him claim a second Northern Trust Open title.The two-time Augusta champion birdied two of his final three holes to snatch a one-shot victory at Riviera, lifting him back to world No 4 and making him the first multiple winner on the PGA Tour this season. Watson mixed five gains with two bogeys during his final round 68 to finish ahead of Adam Scott and Jason Kokrak and had to dig deep to win the title he previously claimed in 2014. Bubba Watson poses with the trophy after putting in to win on the 18th hole during the final round of the Northern Trust Open I made some mistakes, but I stayed patient, stayed committed and thats what weve been working on, Watson told Sky Sports. It feels nice any time you win.You never know when your last win is going to be, so for me to come back and pull one out and win in a tough way means a lot and is very special to me and my family.The last five years weve been working on the head game. The physical game is there, its just about staying patient and focusing on one shot at a time. Watson birdied two of his final three holes to claim a one-shot victory Watson was criticised earlier this month for comments made about the Phoenix Open and TPC Scottsdale, leading to the American being booed and heckled by spectators during that week.The experience was still affecting Watson a fortnight on, with the 37-year-old keen to improve how he deals with negativity around his game.It was a bad headline that said I didnt like the community and didnt like the golf tournament, which was a lie, Watson added in the post-tournament media conference. Victory is Watsons second of the PGA Tour season On the Saturday I got booed on every shot - even though Ive lived there for the last eight winters. I love Scottsdale, I love Phoenix.I have to just bite my tongue sometimes when things are written or things are said, and there was a lot of things said in between those ropes.The PGA Tour heads to Florida next for the Honda Classic.

Porcello is 4-0 with a 2.52 earned-run average over his past five starts and has won two of his three outings this season against Toronto.The Red Sox have set up their rotation so that David Price, the winning pitcher on Wednesday, could start the final game of the season Oct. 2 at Fenway Park against Toronto.Drew Pomeranz has been given an extra day of rest, allowing Porcello, Eduardo Rodriguez and Clay Buchholz to make their respective starts in Toronto on regular rest.The improved Buchholz has enjoyed success against the Blue Jays and that also figured into the rotation alignment.Theres some of that involved, Red Sox manager John Farrell said.

He remained in the game and threw out a runner before giving way to a pinch hitter in the ninth.It was kinda something that I just felt when I was swinging, Martin said. It was weird. Just every swing, it was like something was biting me right in that knee. ... It really didnt affect me behind the plate.Despite winning twice against the Blue Jays, Porcello has a 5.21 ERA this season in the three outings and is 1-0 with a 5.68 ERA in two starts at Rogers Centre.In 15 career games, including 14 starts, Porcello is 6-7 with a 5.27 ERA against Toronto.

He batted .286/.356/.626 in August with nine homers and 22 RBI.It would be no surprise, however, if Dioner Navarro, who was re-acquired late last month in a trade with the Chicago White Sox, was behind the plate for Estrada on Friday. Navarro, who worked well with Estrada last season, caught the right-hander in his last start.Martin has been through stretch runs for postseason spots several times in his career.Its the time of the year where if you struggle, its magnified, Martin said. If youre doing well, everybody gets excited. We had a tough series (in New York). Put it behind us. Keep moving forward. Got a lot of baseball ahead. Lot of games left. Were right in it. ' ' '
