Hello again all golfers and race fans!

Last week at the BMW Charity Pro-Am tournament, I needed to make a 35-foot putt on the 72nd hole to make the cut. I thought I just needed to two-putt to make the cut safely on the number. Instead, I tried to two-putt and actually made the putt to make the cut on the number! I was laughing with joy and surprised at the result, not trying to make the putt! A little luck every now and then never hurt!

This Monday, I was playing in the U.S. Open local qualifier in Cincinnati and needed to make a 15-foot par putt on the last hole to get into what I thought was going to be a certain playoff to move on to the next stage. I made the putt and had to wait around the rest of the afternoon to see if my score of 71 was good enough for a playoff. Two guys in the last group of the day came in with better than 71 and bumped me out of a playoff!

Golf is a funny game, and some days you have luck on your side, and some days you ain’t got nothin’!

Good day…
