Only my husband knew

I borrowed a Titleist ball from my husband that he happened to find on the course. I used my 5-wood for the 104 yd par 3 at Heron Ridge GC in Virginia Beach. The green is right over the water, so it was a testy shot, to say the least. I hit it solid and it went onto the left side of the green and slowly rolled downward toward the hole, which was in the back of the green. My husband said that it looked like it went in the hole, but my playing partner said that it just rolled behind the hole. In the meantime, we let two gentlemen play through. My husband jokingly told them that the ball in the hole was his, so don't mess with it. None of us in the foursome believed it went in, although my husband still had his suspicions. We followed the two men that played through and while one was sizing up his putt, sure enough. He exclaimed, "There IS a ball in the hole!" Sadly, my husband conceded that it was mine, and not his.
