with nine (9) holes remaining, he (GF-C) was worse off Explanation: or something along these lines. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 26 mins (2007-05-12 16:34:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- A very rough translation, but this is the idea and perhaps others can chip in to clean up: The feeling (sensation that I had) of the victory in Italy was rare (incredible); on the two other previous occasions that I won, I came out of the last rounds, more or less having control over my competitors. This time, I had five (5) more hits (strokes) and with nine (9) holes remaining, I was worse off by 7 strokes (a disadvantage of -7). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 38 mins (2007-05-12 16:46:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- See: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/1911638 for second part of your question "I was seven shots behind". Good luck Mari. |
