Is there anybody who's quite as naively optimistic and hopeful as a golfer? We all turn up to play with the thought that today could be our day. We take on ridiculous shots when the chances of executing them successfully are low because we genuinely believe we can achieve it, whatever cold logic might say.
Even high-handicappers dream of a moment or a day when everything goes right for them. Maybe just that one shot which even Tiger Woods in his pomp would have been proud of executing.
