Polish Golf Championship
Milo
and Stosh are standing on the 18th tee at their Polish Country Club. They
are the final twosome in the Polish Country Club Championship and are tied for
the lead. The 18th hole is a beautiful par four with a deep valley descending
down to a dogleg right.
Both
Milo and Stosh hit long, straight tee shots that disappear down into the valley. A short time later, the fore caddie
appears at the top of the
hill and announces that both balls are within 6 inches of each other,
but there's a problem. Both of the golf
balls are Titleist # 4s.
Milo
and Stosh look at each other and realize that they had not informed each other as to what kind of ball they were
playing, nor its number. They quickly descend into the valley and, sure enough,
their two Titleist golf balls are right next
to each at the bottom of the valley in the middle of
the fairway.
Stosh
looks at Milo and says, "We had better get a ruling from a tournament
official to straighten this out. This is the Polish Country Club
Championships and we don't want to be disqualified for making a mistake and hitting the wrong ball. After all, we are tied for the lead."
Championships and we don't want to be disqualified for making a mistake and hitting the wrong ball. After all, we are tied for the lead."
Soon
after, a rules official appears and examines the two # 4 Titleist golf balls. He then looks up at Milo and Stosh and
says,
"Which one of you is playing
the yellow ball?”
