Golfer Tom Watson Takes Loss In His Stride

From July 21, 2009 --- (Heard on "All Things Considered")

"On the doorstep of AGE 60, Tom Watson came within a putt of winning golf's BRIRISH OPEN on Sunday.

He lost the lead on the last hole of regulation play and then lost a playoff to Stewart Cink."

(jmo) There have been a good number of instances where golfers defied their age by winning or very nearly winning a big tournament.

Maybe if Tiger is still swinging the clubs well in 17 years, we can check him out.
