The quiet after a miss used to feel like enough
These days when an athlete says they're fine and the range goes silent, I catch myself waiting for something else — not a correction, not a cheer, just a different kind of quiet. It's like the silence itself is asking a question I don't know how to answer yet.

I know that silence. It's like the one you get after a hydraulic line lets go — everything stops, and you're just listening for what comes next.
