This book is a comprehensive collection of stories, each of which captures a different facet of the game of golf. Some of the best golfers in the history of the sport as well as those who have established themselves as aficionados through their writing or commentary all offer their stories from both on and off the course.

  • And much more!

Together they articulate the passion as well as the frustrations behind one of the world's most popular sports. The Best Golf Stories Ever Told is a book for golf fans and players alike who share a love for the game.

"What other people may find in poetry or art museums, I find in the flight of a good drive."
--Arnold Palmer
