<p>On his <a href="http://www.bubbawatsongolf.com/charity/" target="_blank">website</a>, Bubba writes:</p>
<p>“One of the privileges of being on the PGA Tour is that I have the opportunity to raise awareness and help a wide variety of charities&#8230;. Helping these charities and more importantly, the families involved, can be more rewarding than winning a golf tournament. To match my ambition on the course, I have decided to set an ambitious goal off the course this year and will try to raise one million dollars for charity.”</p>
<p>The following items are up for auction:</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong></strong><a href="http://blog.ebay.com/2012/06/26/hitting-the-green-for-charity/tb-ebay-bubba_watson-195/" rel="attachment wp-att-15309"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-15309" title="TB-eBay-Bubba_Watson-195" src="http://blog.ebay.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/TB-eBay-Bubba_Watson-195-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a>eBay is proud to be teaming up with PGA golfer Bubba Watson to support exclusive auctions benefiting Bubba&#8217;s favorite charities. Bubba is not only a Masters champion golfer, but a loyal eBay user who has sold several cars on eBay. He&#8217;s also bought everything from vintage baby toys to Halloween costumes.</p>
<p>“I am extremely proud to partner up with eBay,&#8221; said Bubba. &#8220;I feel we have the same values and I can’t wait to use eBay’s platform to generate more buzz around my own charity efforts. Giving back to the local communities is close to my heart and with the help of eBay I feel I can step up my efforts and more efficiently reach more people.”</p>
<p>Bubba Watson became the Masters champ two months ago. He&#8217;s currently ranked #5 in the world, winning four of his last 41 PGA Tour tournaments. Bubba uses a pink PING G20 Driver to raise awareness and money for a variety of charities.</p>
<p>Bubba is hoping to raise a million dollars for his own charity, <a href="http://www.bubbawatsongolf.com">Bubba and Friends Drive to a Million.</a></p>
