A Short History of Golf

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

A Short History of Golf is an absorbing and occasionally funny look at the seminal moments and great characters of golf through the ages. It s about how champions inspired generations, how great matches excited the senses, how innovation evolved and changed the game. How media covered it, how people consumed it. How a great industry formed around it. Written in sports writer Matt Cleary s conversational prose, and featuring interviews with Greg Norman, Gary Player, David Graham, Ian Baker-Finch and Scott van Pelt, to name a few, A Short History of Golf is one man s take on how the game today came to be. Golf is and has always been - fun, addictive, rewarding, infuriating and a few other things besides. And every player, from Old Tom Morris to young Brandon DeChambeau, shares and empathises with every other golfers obsession with swinging a club at a ball to a hole. Every golfer gets it. They always have. Bloody brilliant. Greg Norman.
