Third One

My partner and I were one up going to the last hole in a nine hole match. My partner hit first. He ended up about seven feet past flag with a downhill putt.

I hit next. My ball landed about five feet short and just to the right of the hole. It spun left and started rolling uphill toward the hole. As we watched my opponents got real excited, but I figured it would stop short.

It found the bottom of the hole. Match over.

I didn't get excited until we started toward the club house. Then I realized my heart was beating about ninety miles an hour. Pretty cool stuff.
