Both making par at the 8th, the match of the
century would be decided on the final hole.
How I wish I could say it came down to a
missed two-footer, forcing me to lose by a
single stroke. Standing there on the ninth tee
I had a greater understanding of the extreme
pressure professionals experience when faced
with a drive on the 18th at Augusta National,
with the Green Jacket hanging in the balance.
Succumbing to the ultimate pressure of losing
a round of golf to my wife, I choked like a dog.
The drive at the most important hole of my
life found the water. Why not? Let’s make
it interesting. This most unfortunate mishap
caused me to lose the match by two strokes.
There is a first for everything and this was it.
When talking with my derelict golf buddies, I
will never admit for the record that watching
her make that three-foot putt to win was one of
the proudest moments in my life. Let it never
be mentioned that I celebrated her victory like
she had just won the U.S. Women’s Open. Nor
will I ever admit that I gladly signed and dated
the scorecard as a keepsake for our golf book.
What I will say is, I sulked,
threw my clubs, and stormed
to the car, swearing to never
play golf again. Yeah, that
sounds better, that’s what I
did.
Can I have my Man Card
back, Please?
