It was at that point that I was tempted to begin silently weeping.
I wept a bit for you when I looked over to 2 green and saw him sink that endless putt from the fringe (or the very edge of the green).
I nearly wept (and verbally expressed dismay) when Jeff Shelman somehow made par literally from the middle of the hillside overlooking the 10th green. It was probably the most impressive recovery I've seen all year.
I climbed up to the top of that hill, myself, to look for Doug Siebert's 2nd shot (which we never found).
My ankle is weeping today, from the trip back down. I should say from the *voyage* back down; had I tripped, I might have killed myself.
BTW: That 6/12 area is my least favorite part of T&C. The greens and the mutual chipping area look ... out of place to my eyes -- and, more to the point, out of the time of the course. And I love the par-3 18th (except for the screen of arborvitae behind the green, which, like the green screen behind No. 3, would be better off dead, IMO).
My favorite holes: 2, 5 (because it's so outrageous a hill), 8, 10 (particularly if that hillside to the right is maintained such that balls will release or at least be found), 11, 17, 18.
I would add 15 to that list if the entire hillside were mowed as fairway.
But of course: To each, his own.
