Here's one prediction I got wrong:
Japhy is cleverly using Ronald's slipstream: every time
Ronald moves forward, Japhy goes with him (so I expect
Japhy to post 95 soon:).
No! He has gone ahead to 94!
Now Ronald can use his slipstream :)

What? And loose the angst of trying to figure out on which
of the courses you're beaten by a few characters? Nay, I say,
nay, nay, a thousand times nay!
I think the golfers among us should pool our efforts (after the rowdy,
cut-throat competition ends, of course!) to amass a list of common -- or
