Scott and Jenny Stallings enter the Masters ticket lottery every year. At last, they thought, their names were pulled. And then they looked closer... The invitation was meant for the other Scott Stallings — the professional golfer. More:

Let’s, for a moment, think of the young lady working at The UPS Store counter in St. Simons Island, Georgia. Wearing a blue quarter-zip UPS Store shirt and a nose ring, she clocked in at some time Tuesday morning, went about her day. Maybe had a coffee. Or one of those health smoothies. Another shift.That is, until two people, Scott and Jenny Stallings, approached the counter with an envelope in one hand and a fatal tension in the other. Scott clenched the parcel tight.

Upon arrival, Jenny went to the door as Scott unpacked the car. There sat an unexpected UPS envelope addressed to Scott. “What’s this?” she yelled. Scott had no clue. Confused, Jenny pulled back the tab and out came another envelope. A Russian doll, of sorts, but this second envelope was discernibly different.Blinked.Like everyone else, Scott and Jenny enter the Masters ticket lottery every year. And every year, they’re passed over.

It’s unclear if any of the other 74 Scott Stallings on Facebook do the same. Like the Scott Stallings who works at Walmart in Ada, Okla. Or the one who’s a technician for Raytheon Technologies in Danville, Ala. Or the ones in Dunn, N.C., Custer, Ky., or Redlands, Calif.Scott Stallings is a three-time winner on the PGA Tour. A longtime journeyman, he’s riding a renaissance of late. The 37-year-old has reshaped his career by transforming himself physically.

Stallings began thinking his wife , had intercepted the invitation and was planning to put it under the tree on Christmas morning. But then Christmas came and went. No Masters invitation. Stallings was growing nervous.
