Bubba Watson to replace Confederate flag with American flag on 'General Lee'

Bubba Watson is taking a stand.

One of the world's best golfers, the 36-year-old is the owner of "General Lee," the car featured on the hit television show from the 1980s, "The Dukes of Hazzard," and he's decided it needs a bit of paintwork.

The Confederate flag is painted on the roof of "General Lee." The flag has become a sensitive political issue after the racially-motivated murder of nine African-Americans at Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, S.C.

Watson bought the car at auction a few years ago for $110,000.
