what the stars reveal about your game

water
cancer, scorpio, pisces

▶ Nothing better than an intimate
conversation with a walk-up single.
No. 3 tee isn’t too soon for a plain-
tive comment about your marriage.

fire
aries, leo, sagittarius

▶ Getting wrapped up in the compe-
tition is the point. You’ll apologize
for what you said to your four-ball
partner in your own time.

earth
taurus, virgo, capricorn

▶ You were loyal to Tiger during
the hard years. Tear up during a
rebroadcast of the 2018 Tour
Championship without shame.

air
gemini, libra, aquarius

▶ To play is to learn. Just because
you can’t break 85 doesn’t mean
others won’t benefit from your
swing advice.

it’s not you.
it’s your
woefully
inferior
golf game.

this game just isn’t
fair sometimes. i mean,
today was fair, obviously.
but other times
it’s not fair.

on the bright side,
you probably
learned a lot
watching me.

it could have gone
either way:
i could have won by
a little or by a lot.

my advice? take two
weeks off from the game
and then quit. WHAT TO SAY WHEN YOU WIN

hey, tomorrow’s a new day.
and that’s the day you should
pursue a new hobby.
