Rory McIlroy stayed in Rusack's Hotel last week and every time he walked out of reception and onto The Links road bordering the Old Course, he visualised his name on top of that famous blue and yellow leaderboard.
It was up there for real for more than 24 hours from Saturday afternoon until the 14th fairway on Sunday when Cameron Smith overtook him.
A keen fisherman, Smith reeled in the biggest catch of his career with four holes to go at St Andrews.
