the king of golf
In his prime, he was at the top of his game, but decades of pressure and heavy drinking have taken their toll. He can now be spotted on various coastal new england courses: a lanky silhouette staggering across the misty landscape, playing for free because its the off-season, with a couple of old dogs and a bottle. Late last february, a couple of kids out on the cape claimed to have seen him lying face-down on the fifth green, still clutching a thermos lid half-full of vodka...the faint barking of his dogs heard somewhere off in the distant woods.
