heart-wracking finish that he ex

Getting on the green in one on the
short 18th hole, he needed an
8-foot putt for a birdie two, but the
ball missed th cup by inches. Nel
son's drive also was on the green,
but a greater distance from the
cup and he was conceded little or
no chance to drop his putf, which
was wide. Their three's halved
the hole and the match.
