The Quotable Golfer

by Robert McCord

All the history, tradition, agony, and ecstasy of golf shine through in these words by players, professional and amateur. Organized into categories such as “Golf Defined,” “The Mental Game,” and “Caddies,” the quotes come from such links lovers as Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan, Lee Trevino, and more. Some are modest (“I don’t know if you’re ever finished trying to improve”— Woods ), others supremely confident (“I don’t know why you’re practicing so hard to finish second”— Babe Zaharias to her competitors), and they’re all fun.

[Mike]

not a 'sit down and read' type book, but certainly if you're a golfer, you will appreciate the many quotes found in this book. From the early days of golf up to the time of writing (mid 1990's or so), from men and women, from many perspectives, these quotes will make you think, dream and laugh. Really liked it, but I've always enjoyed a good quote.
