There’s an old adage about sportswriting that says “the smaller the ball, the better the writing.” In this reissue of 1,001 Pearls of Golfers’ Wisdom, the compiled quotes prove that to be most definitely true!
Including great golfers from all around the world and every era of history—Ben Hogan, Bob Hope, George Bernard Shaw, Gary Player, John Updike, Laura Baugh, Tom Watson, Lee Trevino, Donald Trump, Winston Churchill, Bill Murray, and more—these quotes offer wit and wisdom on every stroke and situation.
With a foreword from the great Arnold Palmer, this is certainly a book that makes a great gift for golfers everywhere, even if they have to buy it for themselves.
