From AudioFile
Q School is a series of qualifying tournaments required of many professional golfers before theyre eligible for the PGA tour. It is a realm of big-time heartaches and little-known players who harbor the dream of making a living playing tournament golf. This is clearly a book for golf junkies, maybe even golf wonks. Feinstein introduces such minute details about tournaments that at times its hard to follow his reading. And this is the abridged version! The stories themselves sometimes lack the kind of dramatic structure that lets the listener know when one ends and another starts. The author is acceptable as narrator, but his volume seldom varies, so its sometimes difficult to perceive when hes stressing a point.

Paperback. Condition: USED_VERYGOOD. It is the tournament that separates champions from mortals. It is the starting point for the careers of future legends and can be the final stop on the down escalator for fading stars. The annual PGA Tour Qualifying Tournament is one of the most gruelling competitions of any sport. Every autumn, veterans and talented hopefuls alike sweat through six rounds of hell at Q school as it is universally known, to get a shot at the PGA Tour, vying for the slots available. The grim reality: if you don't make it through Q school, you're not on the PGA tour. You are out. And those who make it to the sixth day are the truly lucky ones. Hundreds of players fail to get through the equally gruelling first two rounds. John Feinstein tells the story of the players who compete for those coveted PGA positions in the 2005 Q school as only he can. With arresting accounts from the players - established winners, rising stars, the defeated and the endlessly hopeful - America's favourite sports writer unearths the inside story behind the PGA Tour's most brutal all-or-nothing competitions. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001514549
