Clue/Question:  She had tried to reach the par 5 in two shots for years.  She finally did it, – – –

Answer:  AT LONG LAST

(Very impressive!  Both the Jumble pun, and the golf accomplishment!  Getting on the green of a par 5 in two shots is no small feat.  Not that I’m an active golfer, but I have golfed, and I don’t remember getting on one in two shots.  Of course there are some par fives that some might consider long par fours – a short par 5 – and you have a better chance of getting on in two with those.

All familiar old clue words today.  It’s definitely been a while since we’ve seen “garble”!  All of today’s jumbles have come up as new though.  The answer letter layout was a tenacious ten letter jumble.  It kept me in the dark, until I rewrote it as consonants :  GLLNSTT and vowels:  AAO.  That helped me to see the answer . . . at long last!

Great cartoon of a couple golfing.  I don’t really recognize them as famous, but the man kind of looks like an older Chevy Chase.  This looks like a links course to me.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
