goalby turned professional in 1952 and his first tour win came in 1958, and he won and contended steadily until 1971, when he was 42 years old. at the 1968 masters, goalby tied roberto de vicenzo at the end of 72 holes of regulation play, and would have had to face an 18-hole playoff the next day, had there not been a mistake on devicenzo's scorecard. in the final round, devicenzo's playing partner tommy aaron marked a par-4 on the 17th hole, when devicenzo had in fact made a birdie-3. devicenzo failed to catch the mistake and signed the scorecard. the rules of golf state that the higher written score signed by a golfer on his card must stand and as such, the error gave goalby the championship. goalby, playing in the group behind devicenzo, was not personally at fault for anything in the incident. the story received overwhelming attention at the time, and has remained high in public consciousness since. it was recounted in great detail in the 2005 book "the lost masters: grace and disgrace in '68" by curt sampson. the personal relationship between goalby and devicenzo was unaffected by the difficult situation, and the two players formed a partnership years later, for a team event on the champions tour.

the phrase 'balanced scorecard' primarily refers to a performance management report used by a management team, and typically this team is focused on managing the implementation of a strategy or operational activities – in a recent survey 62% of respondents reported using balanced scorecard for strategy implementation management, 48% for operational management. balanced scorecard is also used by individuals to track personal performance, but this is less common – only 17% of respondents in the survey using balanced scorecard in this way, however it is clear from the same survey that a larger proportion (about 30%) use corporate balanced scorecard elements to inform personal goal setting and incentive calculations.
