Bubba Watson takes Jason Day's son to movies while dad plays round 1

With weather wreaking havoc on the tee times for the U.S. Open at Oakmont, Bubba Watson had a special guest for his trip to the movies between his opening two rounds ... Jason Day's son Dash.

With Day capturing so many titles the past two years, the golfing world has become quite familiar with Dash, who regularly greets his father on the 18th green following a win. Prior to the tournament, Dash spent a night hanging out with Rickie Fowler and on Friday joined Watson and his son Caleb at the movies.

The long-hitting Watson was one of the few who were able to play most of their opening round on Thursday before weather forced a suspension of play. He finished up a 1-under par 69 early in the morning, and isn't scheduled to tee off for his second round until Saturday morning.

It's likely Jason Day would rather have been with his son at the movies instead of playing at Oakmont, as the world's top-ranked golfer struggled to a 4-over par 39 on his first nine holes.
