In the few years that he has played golf on the pro circuit, Tiger Woods has done more to popularize the game of golf than Arnold Palmer has in a lifetime. Today, school-aged children around the country, from exclusive suburbs to inner city communities, are taking up golf. The game now has its own cable television station with 24 hour-a-day programming. Golf is big.
It's appropriate then that Tiger Woods graces the cover of Golf. Here are the great players who have repeatedly proven themselves on the course. These are the men and women with the nerve and skill to win. They are the champions who have worn the cloak of victory with grace.
Golf is an essential reference for all golf fans and the perfect tribute to the game's top 300 men and women:
Relive some of the greatest moments in golf, such as:
The book includes the history of the four Major Championships. The player profiles and fact boxes give name, date of birth, career highlights, major championship titles plus Ryder/Curtis Cup appearances for 280 of the world's greatest golfers. Photos and stories relive the most celebrated and unforgettable moments of all the major championships.
