Full Description
Fifty of golf's best players recount their most memorable round.
No matter how good a player you are, golf can often be summed up as a good walk spoiled. But for every duffer and hacker who have picked up the sticks, there is always one round that stands out from the rest. It's the game in which drives were straight and long, chips were soft and accurate, and putts always found the hole.
This is why golfers endure the long walk; for the round they will never forget.
Compiled by golf's best interviewer, Matt Adams, The Golf Round I'll Never Forget presents 50 such rounds from some of golf's best and brightest stars.
Readers will march the final round at Cherry Hills with Arnold Palmer as he outlasts Ben Hogan and fends off Jack Nicklaus for a remarkable comeback victory that would stand as his only U.S. Open win. Similarly, readers will revel in the 46-year-old Nicklaus' come-from-behind victory at the 1986 Masters. And, of course, there is the Tiger Slam — the unforgettable rounds that encompassed the never-before-achieved feat of winning all four majors in succession.
Standing alongside these gems from the three greatest golfers in history are rounds from British and European players that will never be forgotten: Paul Casey (England), Sergio Garcia (Spain), Padraig Harrington (Ireland), Tony Jacklin (England), Martin Kaymer (Germany), Bernhard Langer (Germany), Rory McIlroy (N.Ireland), Justin Rose (England), Henrik Stenson (Sweden), plus many more from the USA, South Africa and Australia.
Presented with photographs and scorecards for each round, Matt Adams' expert prose and the illuminating quotes he elicits from his subjects makes the The Golf Round I'll Never Forget the perfect book for every duffer and accomplished golfer.
