Like many times before, it was a mix of highs andlows. My drive off the first tee was strong—straight down the fairway. For a moment, I feltlike a pro. But soon after, my chip shots fell apart, and my putts seemed to have a mindof their own. As I walked off the course, I couldn’t help but reflect on how much golfresembles life itself. In golf, every hole is a fresh start, but no two are ever the same.
