I'd have thought it obvious that no-one can have a worst shot, however you
may define worst, but the photographers seem to have chosen the near misses
which they most regret - the one that got away - and that seems like a
reasonable enough definition to me for the purposes of a newspaper article. 

In any case, I think it's valuable to hear people talking about and
analysing their pictures even if they do use it as an ego trip.
