One of the greatest athletes who ever lived was the legendary Bobby Jones, the golfer. One of the things that characterized him was his absolute honesty in playing the game. In fact, on one occasion in a crucial match, he accidentally moved the ball as he was addressing it with his club. Though he moved it just a fraction, and though he was out in the rough and no one could possibly have known that he moved the ball, he still insisted on penalizing himself one stroke. When someone asked him about this, he explained his actions by saying, “I don’t play against men, I play against par.”
