A man was at the country club for his weekly round of golf.
He began his round with an eagle on the first hole and a
birdie on the second. On the third hole he had just scored
his first ever hole-in-one when his cell phone rang.
It was a doctor notifying him that his wife had just been
in a terrible accident and was in critical condition and in the ICU.
The man told the doctor to inform his wife where he was and
that the he'd be there as soon as possible. As he hung up
he realized he was leaving what was shaping up to be his
best ever round of golf. He decided to get in a couple of
More holes before heading to the hospital.
He ended up playing all eighteen of course,
finishing his round shooting a personal best 61,
shattering the club record by five strokes and beating
his previous best game by more than 10.
He was jubilant.... then he remembered his wife.
Feeling guilty he dashed to the hospital.
He saw the doctor in the corridor and asked
about his wife's condition.
The doctor glared at him and shouted,
"You went ahead and finished your round
of golf didn't you!? I hope you're proud of
yourself! While you were out for the past four
hours enjoying yourself at the country club your
wife has been languishing in the ICU! It's just as
well you went ahead and finished that round because
it will be more than likely your last! For the rest
of her life she will require 'round the clock' care.
And you'll be her care giver!"
The man was feeling so guilty he broke down and sobbed.
The doctor snickered and said, "I'm just messing with ya.
She's dead. What'd you shoot?"
