How to use miss in a sentence?

  1. Prince Harry:

    It is days like today when I really miss having Princess Diana around and I miss being able to share the happy news.

  2. Tiger Woods:

    Relative to the field, I was about that long early in my career, when youre able to hit the ball much further than other players, and get on the right golf courses where setups like this is penalizing if you are a little bit crooked, and if he does miss it, he misses on the correct side, and hes far enough down there to where he was able to get the ball on the green. And he did all the little things right.

  3. Turner Sports:

    We are all heartbroken over Sekou’s tragic passing, his commitment to journalism and the basketball community was immense and we will miss his warm, engaging personality. He was beloved by his Turner Sports and NBA friends and colleagues. Our deepest condolences are with his family and loved ones.

  4. Jimmie Johnson:

    Were running out of days and if we miss it, its going to be by a few (points) I believe, i can look back over the first half of the season and see a lot of races where we gave away a few points.

  5. Giannis Antetokounmpo:

    Have pride, keep your man in front of you, don’t allow them to have easy looks, don’t allow them to get easily to the free throw line. Rebound the ball. Make sure when we miss or make shots, you got to box (out). The little things add up in 48 minutes and then you’ll have the result of being good on defense. But if you let the guy shoot an open 3 then let somebody go backdoor, let somebody get offensive rebound then throw it to the 3-point guy so he can knock down the 3, all that builds up and you have a bad night.
