Golf

The ball sailed through the air and landed on the green, bouncing four times and coming to rest inches from the hole.
There was raucous cheering and more polite applause.
He felt good. He was playing the round of his life.
He arrived at the green knowing that a simple putt would see him end on 7 under par, his greatest ever on this course.
He stood ready to tap the ball in, unaware of the falling debris from the space station that was heading straight for him which would spoil his moment of glory by taking his life.
