The Three Rabbis and Golf Joke

This fellow was playing golf with three Rabbis who were playing all the top shots while he himself had no success. He asked the Rabbis to let him in on their secret. They told him that it was really very simple and that he should go to the synagogue every day and pray to God for help.

The fellow went to his nearest synagogue and began to pray. Afterwards, he went every day and prayed at the synagogue for a whole year, asking God to improve his shots. But alas his game didn't improve. He went back to the Rabbis who were still happily playing some great golf. He told them what he had done and how he had prayed earnestly to improve his golf, but to no avail - his golf was still as miserable as ever.

The Rabbis looked at one another bemused, and of them asked him: "I hope we are not being indiscreet, but which synagogue did you go to?" The golfer told him that he went to the one on Main Street. The Rabbi laughed: "Ah! that's why you are making no progress, sure that's the synagogue for tennis".
