| Golf The golf before this round is done is harder than a hole-in-one. From the driver to the putter, from the fairway to the green are rough and bunker trap and water and divots in between. Mull again the hazards before you tee it up; wood and iron, wedge and chip before the flag and cup. Many strokes beyond the bogie, many snowmen before par, You may dream you’re Tiger Woods; a duffer’s what you are. Match play, stroke play, best ball, links, don’t forget that your game stinks before you bet. You’re in the weeds. You’re in the trees. You’re out of bounds. You’re wet. It’s a game of shame... gimmes aside... frustration, loss of dignity and pride, a game beyond your skill or scope. But c’est la vie, another tee. Keep your head down and hope. |
