A quotation from Samuel Johnson

The distance is commonly very great between actual performances and speculative possibility. It is natural to suppose, that as much as has been done to-day may be done to-morrow; but on the morrow some difficulty emerges, or some external impediment obstructs. Indolence, interruption, business, and pleasure, all take their turns of retardation; and every long work is lengthened by a thousand causes that can, and ten thousand that cannot, be recounted. Perhaps no extensive and multifarious performance was ever effected within the term originally fixed in the undertaker’s mind. He that runs against Time, has an antagonist not subject to casualties.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets, “Pope” (1781)

Alejandro Tosti slams “sh*t” report about slowing down Min Woo Lee

As Min Woo Lee tried to capture the first win of his PGA Tour career in Houston, the Aussie also had to withstand some tension in his group. Playing alongside Argentinian Alejandro Tosti and New Zealander Ryan Fox, Lee entered the final round with a four-shot lead over the Argentine. But Tosti rinsed his second shot into the creek on the par-4 1st hole, which all but ended his chances of moving up the leaderboard. He was understandably frustrated after that moment, but then grew angrier on the par-5 8th hole. After pushing his drive well right of the fairway
