This is the essential frustration of this excruciating sport. For when you've done it once, you make the fundamental error of asking yourself why you can't do this all the time. The answer to this question is simple: the first time was a fluke."

"The older you get the stronger the wind gets and it's always in your face."
"If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball."
