No matter what score he eventually would shoot, Steve McFarland already had won when he stepped to the first tee at Leslie Park Golf Course on Friday morning in the first round of the Ann Arbor City Men's Golf Tournament.
Ten months ago, McFarland was diagnosed with testicular cancer, which spread to his abdomen, including into his throat and behind his lungs.
