Jay Revell的职业是报道高尔夫,但去年大师赛那天,他选错了球场。他窝在沙发上看Rory McIlroy穿上绿夹克,却没去哈瓦那乡村俱乐部——那里,他92岁的祖父Ed Bates正打出人生最后一轮好球。
Ed Bates人称"Big Ed",在该俱乐部当了三十年首席职业教练。去年因健康问题封杆前,他在大师赛周日轰出76杆,比年龄还少16杆。Jay的父亲当天连打几通电话催他去打球,他拒绝了。「Jay, you missed something special today,」父亲事后告诉他,「He couldn't miss.」

Jay后来补上了那通电话。祖父的回应很平淡:「Yeah, I had a good one.」但补了一句让Jay更难受的话——「I hit it well, putted it well, and scored well. That's how you're supposed to do it, though.」意思是:本该如此,没什么稀奇。
几周后Jay特意请假去陪祖父打球,那是他最后一次能和祖父同组。那天的球没有飞得那么远,但Jay说,自己全程都在看祖父挥杆,而不是自己的球。
