At the end of the movie, an older Hardy Greaves has just had what appears to have been a heart attack. He announces that the game of golf is a game to be played and as he walks across the golf green, he sees none other than Bagger Vance waving him on, almost in the form of a welcome. As Hardy crosses the green, the sun is setting. Do you think that this means that Hardy had died and that Bagger was welcoming him into the next life? Just before Bagger left the match and let Hardy take over years before, Bagger told Hardy that he would see him again, that it would be just a short time. I would like to think this is how we are welcomed when our time comes.
