  ______ROUND 4______  

Sometimes the final leaderboard - doesn't tell the whole story.  With my guys gone - the focus was on my sister.  When she placed my bets - told her to put $5 on whomever she wanted. She picked Bello. At 125-1 That ticket was worth $630. On Sunday he was Tied for the lead. As the day began, Bello and Stenson slugged it out on each hole. They stayed tied. Then Stenson pulled ahead by 2 strokes, He slipped and Bello caught him.  Tied again. Then Bello pulled away. 2 Stroke lead.  My sister wouldn't watch - afraid to jinx it. Told her it was tape delayed and she couldn't. She conceded. 

As Bello reached the last few holes - he just needed pars to secure the victory. Then it Happened. He sliced an Approach that looked like it was in the water. It wasn't - but it was on the bank in an impossible position. He could barely reach it, was far from the Pin, and needed a very long - perfect fade to save Par. That's when my sister joined me to watch. I wanted him to take a drop, lose a stroke, and keep a 1 shot lead.

Announcer: "He is so annoyed by his last shot he will probably go for it". 

Announcer: "This is the shot that wins him the Tournament" 

He went for it!

Hits a long fade - It Hit the Green! 

Then bounced and rolled into the water. 

Bello Never Recovered. 

She was pissed - cursed me for making her watch. Yeah it sucked - but - could have been amazing. Imagine if he stuck it. We would have been jumping up and down and Screaming for Joy - Would have went out for Sushi and Saki Shots -  Yeah Over Golf.   
I have experienced that High several Times. One of these days  - it will go her way and she will finally see why we watch. 

Cost: $5
Hitting a Winner: Priceless
Almost Winning: Pretty Damn Entertaining

Thanks Bello! 
Win or lose - You Showed Heart - it was Worth the Price of Admission.

Like I Said. The Leaderboard doesn't always tell the whole story.
His name isn't on it. But We'll never forget how close he came to immortality.
And how close she came - to doing a back flip - over a boring little game of golf.
