Probably from Portuguese root, not Spanish. Portuguese used S more than Z.
Brasilians make a point that it is spelled BRASIL, not BRAZIL.

Yeah, I bet it happens a lot in the sub-100 range, or players never even getting to their best because of injuries. We just don't hear about them.

Not just you.
it's me, too. Think Federer is the first person to visit Ibiza and not get high?
I would not stop at getting "high". Knowing him, he did not get a few other Ibiza experiences. He is truly a good guy.
We think.
