59-year-old Tom Watson nearly had his storybook ending, coming tantalizingly close to a sixth British Open title. I was following the end of the tournament and the leaders were heading for a playoff after 18 as I was heading into the theater. It's intermission now, and I've learned Watson's bid for late-career glory fell just short. But it's still a Cinderella story: this guy at nearly 60 was a factor contending for this major title all four days. Bravo!
