From simmonssteve: After Sunday's exciting, emotional Canadian Open victory, where does Nick Taylor's 72-foot putt rank in Canadian sports history?
But that was 51 years ago now and, if you’re not 60 years old, you probably have little personal connection to the Henderson goal.
A Canadian piece of sporting symmetry. The accomplishments may not be similar in any way, but the emotion of the moment, the delaying of dinner on Sunday night, the people who don’t care about golf huddled around their big screen television sets, is always when sport is at its best — when it reaches out and grabs the disinterested and pulls them in.
Still, nothing to compare emotionally with that remarkable 72-foot putt that even Taylor didn’t believe was possible. How could anyone believe it to be possible? That’s a movie moment. That’s a Hollywood ending. That’s Kevin Costner making the impossible shot, which is only possible because it was scripted that way.
We don’t pay nearly enough attention to what Jamal Murray is accomplishing in the NBA Finals. He has already made history of his own, becoming the first player in NBA history to have 10 or more assists in the first four games of a Finals.Article content
