"I don't know how I got through the day. I really don't. I'll never know." d There was so much going on in his " mind, Crenshaw said. There were the J 1 is thoughts of Penick, who first put the 5vear-old Crenshaw's hands on a golf dub. d, There was the struggle to turn back the >y world's greatest players in one of golfs :k great dramas. And there was the hauntin ing thought that this was his last, best s. chance. ?g "At 43, you don't know how many more chances you'll have," he said, is He gave himself the chance with a ie third-round 66 that gave him a share of r. the lead, then nailed the victory with ig tournament-turning putts on the 16th te and 17th greens. Those birdies gave him a two-shot ce lead with one hole to go and the freedom ie to play the last hole conservatively. He u" missed the green short left ? away from the trouble ? and made the bogey-5 that won it. 5n "It was fate. I believe in fate. I was 1C* just a lot luckier than anyone else this week," he said after his closing 4-under]P par 68 produced a 274, the third lowest winning score in Mastei-s history.

"At least they won't be asking me why Fve never finished in tKe top 10 in a major any more," Lftve said. Australian Greg Norman, with a 68, and Jay Haas, with a 70, tied for third at 277. . In the run down the stretch, it was a three-man race with Norman and Love playing together well in front of Cren shaw, applying the pressure. Love tied him, momentarily* with a great approach to two feet for a birdie on the 17th. Norman took himself out of it with a three-putt on theK same hole. But Crenshaw, who dtd not birdie the reachable par-5 15th all week, saved his best until the last. He curled a 6-iron off the slope to six feet on the 16th and made the birdie putt to go ahead. On the 17th, he stroked a 9-iron to 13 feet and dropped the left-to-right breaking putt into the heart of the cup: "Maybe the prettiest putt I ever saw in my life," said the man widely envied as one of golfs greatest putters. "I'll remember 16 and 17 as long as I live," Crenshaw said. And, of course, hell remember Penick, the legendaiy teaching pro at the Austin Country Club and for 31 years the golf coach at the University of Texas who came to national attention in his 80s with the publication of "Harvey Penick's Little Red Book," one of the best-selling sports books in history.
