GENIE IN A BOTTLE
Henry, by this time very smug at their imminent victory, suggested a bet on this last hole, placing a fifty-dollar bill on their combined scores.
When Phoenix magnanimously agreed, Genie decided that his male pride had had enough to bear. So, when her turn came, she lined up her ball and hit it with a great whack which sent it flying over the trees in a high arch. It was virtually the same shot Phoenix had chosen earlier.
Her ball landed right on the green, less than a meter from the hole and a couple of meters inside Phoenix's ball. Both Henry and Ann had taken the conservative route. Their balls down in the fairway at the corner, still a hundred meters from the green.
