Golf with its rich tradition has been a part of the fabric of sports history and of our culture and social underpinnings since its royal beginnings.
The parallels between golf and life are unmistakable. Hazards, consistency, overcoming failure, handling success, adapting to circumstances, analyzing situations, making wise choices, staying on the course. Like life, golf is a definitive test of man against himself. Success is not made in one shot, one hole, or one day. Rather it is in the ability to consistently string together several shots, holes, and days in which good decisions outnumber mistakes.
The men quoted in this book--golfing greats including Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, Lee Janzen, Bobby Jones, Bernard Langer, and others--have demonstrated they know how to play the game both on the course and in life. They stand as examples of character, driven by something greater than the leader board. They are men who display faith, courage, and determination through every round of life. They inspire us to know that we can all overcome the sand traps of life and learn how to play the game and finish the course.
The book includes a special section on the life of the late Payne Stewart, including inspirational quotes from Payne regarding his Christian faith, as well as quotes from Payne's family and friends.
Introduction written by legendary sportscaster Pat Summerall.
