He played in temperatures ranging from 32 degrees to 103 degrees, with snow flurries, wind, driving rain, tornado warnings and heat advisories. Five times he needed to return to a venue due to a variety of logistical nightmares and his own incompetence. Through Confessions of a Golfaholic you can create your own great golf experiences by avoiding the many missteps of the author."--Backcover.
Download or read book Confessions of A Gay Globetrotter written by Johnson O'Toole and published by Authors On Line Ltd. This book was released on 2003-04 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A candid, humerous and often moving account of one man's secret life of homosexuality in a era when to be 'gay' risked not only being a social outcast but imprisonment if caught. The author's exploits and search for sexual happiness and expression start as a child on the Indian sub-continent, move on to his family's return to an austere post-war Britain, an unhappy and perhaps unjust dismissal from a promising army career in the Far East, through to the realisation that normal family life was never going to be an attainable goal in his global search for romantic bliss. From the shores of West Africa, where he finds true love, to Australia and the flesh pots of the Middle East, this a true human interest story of our time told with passion, humour and pathos. A real insight into a way of life that had to be secreted from the world for most of the author's life.

Download or read book The Caddie Who Won the Masters written by John Coyne and published by . This book was released on 2011-03 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bobby Jones always hoped that someday an amateur would win the Masters. In this novel, bestselling author John Coyne-The Caddie Who Knew Ben Hogan and The Caddie Who Played With Hickory-tells the story of Tim Alexander, an amateur from the public links courses in Southern Illinois, who qualifies for the Masters and has a chance to fulfill Jones' dream. In The Caddie Who Won The Masters, Coyne blends his skill at the supernatural (he's a bestselling author of novels of the occult) with his vast knowledge of golf and its history. The riveting result: a Field of Dreams-like tale that brings the greatest of golf's ghosts and legends back to Augusta for one more brilliant game. The novel opens, as all Masters stories must, at Amen Corner, that famed cluster of holes, when Tim Alexander meets one of Augusta's most famous members, a mysterious stranger who changes the rules of golf and reality-and offers to save Tim's wife if Tim will set him free by winning the tournament. This novel is a story of what happens when an amateur like Tim Alexander battles his own age, the history and slick greens of Augusta National, and the PGA's best players, from Tiger Woods to the young guns, in a tournament where winning means more than a green jacket to Tim-it means saving the life of his wife. Any golfer who has had Augusta fantasies will be fascinated to spend a week in Georgia, immersed in the traditions, and the suspense, of the Masters, as time is turned back and an amateur, summoning the ghosts of Augusta, plays the greatest tournament of his life.
Download or read book Memoirs of a Caddy written by David J. Noonan and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With humor and pathos, a young caddy from a large, middle- class Catholic family tells what it was like to come of age in the mid-60's, when America was beginning to fall apart. Protagonist Jim Mooney, 17, has some of the wistfulness but none of the big-city veneer of Holden Caulfield - he's the product of a small town 40 miles due west of New York, and his feet are solidly planted on the ground. Jim plays cards with the other caddies - a colorful group to the last man - drinks and hungers for sex, but he's the sort who's going to steer a steady course through life. Not so his older brother Matt, at loose ends and courting danger - whether with the wife of a golfer he caddies for, or in the jungles of Vietnam. Meanwhile, the social strata of the town, steeped in Revolutionary War history, is well delineated - from the country club where the caddies are the put-upon proles and the golfers are judged by their tips, to teenage parties where a kid like Jim straddles the social barrier. Episodes rich in laughter include a double date Jim goes on with an upper-class girl in a Cadillac rescued from a pond and imperfectly restored (a little problem with the brakes). There is also a wonderfully evocative holiday on the hot, relentlessly sunny Jersey shore suddenly cooled by the draft leading in lockstep to Vietnam. The one drawback here is that Jim is so normal that his attitudes offer few surprises. Although covering familiar territory - small-town America and a young man moving from childhood certainties to the ambiguities of adult life - first-novelist Noonan (the nonfiction Neuro, 1989) writes so well that it's worth the trip."--Kirkus
Download or read book Swinging from My Heels written by Christina Kim and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-05-01 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christina Kim is the brashest, bawdiest, funniest player on the Ladies Professional Golf Association tour. Golf fans know her for her colorful wardrobe, even more colorful on-course antics, and an explosive game. But in this rollicking account of the 2009 season, Kim invites readers deep into her life, providing an intimate diary of a young woman's struggles on and off the golf course, and revealing the glory and heartbreak of life on the tour. Once known as a prodigy who shot a 62 in her first LPGA event some six years ago, Kim has newly rededicated herself to realizing her potential, and she takes readers between the ropes for all the action, including her nail-biting near misses at two major championships. She also goes inside the team room at the Solheim Cup, revealing the hijinks and late-night gab sessions that bonded the victorious U.S. team. Along the way we get intimate portraits of her close friends on tour, including tour leaders such as Michelle Wie, Lorena Ochoa, Paula Creamer, Morgan Pressel, and Natalie Gulbis. In this courageous telling, no topic is out-of-bounds, as Kim dishes about the LPGA's sexual mores, the culture clash of an American-based tour increasingly dominated by Koreans, the tumultuous economic forces squeezing the players, and her own battles with body image and her traditional upbringing. Winsome and good-natured, but never afraid of a laugh line or choice profanity, Christina Kim provides a must-read for anyone who loves golf or has wondered about the inner self of a professional athlete.
