Unlikely Eagle

I was having a terrible round on Sunday at Intramuros in Manila.

I got to hole 9 (a short par four with part of the old Spanish wall guarding the green at the right. I took out my 9 wood and tagged it high and slightly right, which made it disappear behind the wall from my view. I thought it was going to be claimed inside the wall for OB, but somehow it got over and landed on the green some 45-50 feet from the hole. That was a miracle in and of itself.

Still euphoric from having escaped that, I was thinking get it close for birdie and enjoy the hole. I read it for a slight dip to the right and downhill... I was more surpised than my cadie when it dropped!

That is a fantastic feeling that I hope I get to experience again.

Cheers!
