Bubba Watson knows a thing or two about pressure. The left-hander triumphed at Augusta National twice in three years, but the one in between, the 2013 Masters won by Adam Scott, taught him the life lessons he attempted to bestow upon Rory McIlroy.

Billy Horschel Has No Sympathy for Tiger Woods

"At 25-years-old, I was barely keeping my Tour card," Watson said (via the Guardian). "That was my first year on Tour. What a talent he [McIlroy] is, so I don't see it as pressure [to win the Masters]. He's got years. He's got his whole life to try to win the Masters, but obviously him personally, he's going to put pressure on himself. Who doesn't want to do that?"

"Not that he's under pressure," he added. "I don't call it pressure at all for McIlroy. I call it as an accomplishment he's trying to do, but he's so young. He's going to have year after year after year to try to do this, to win."

Tiger Woods Not Playing Golf 'A Good Decision'

Barely old enough to qualify for a discount on his car insurance, McIlroy is one green jacket away from completing a career grand slam of major championships and entering the pantheons of golf greats.

Having already won the event twice, Watson believes, like McIlroy, the pressure isn't on him to perform.

"I don't have any pressure. I've already got two [green] jackets."

Watson is currently second in the World Rankings behind McIlroy and remains his greatest threat at the 2015 Masters at Augusta National.
