Perhaps the most important victory in the history of American golf, 20-year-old Francis Ouimet defeated Brits Harry Vardon and Ted Ray in an 18-hole playoff to win the 1913 U.S. Open at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass. Ouimet, who grew up across the street from the 17th hole, made birdie on that hole in both regulation and in the playoff, propelling him to victory over the duo that was considered the two biggest names in the game at that time.

Youth sometime knows not the nerves of an old man, Francis had 2 edges, his youth and course knowledge.

You ever wonder, what it was like to go to bed that night, looking out. Are the next morning. Took some 2 months 2 get home, he got his trophy, and walked home. Man that had to be greatest match ever played. My dreams were to play basketball at rupp arena. Wearing blue and white. And you realize, one day its over. So u have to start new ones, look for something else. But I still dream, all the time . Most times, it's me, stealing the ball from Bobby Hurley all game, and then, I come from around, and block lattners shot. Sometimes I beat tiger woods, and trash talk with Larry bird. And I here lately, I dream of America, somehow, getting all the fake political parties, to where, we have real , folk in positions of power, Not clubs. And really have people look deep into music.. and everything about it. Music is just a vibration, for a narrative change in your mind. For you to block out. Instead of fixing. It is a drug itself. For motivation, for attitude, For play, dark times, 90% of it. And I mean all ,not just rap. Has a purpose, and you never noticed.
