Match, The: The Day the Game of Golf Changed Forever
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-12-05
Summary: A Battle Of (The) Ages!
... Is this the greatest golf match ever played? After reading this book, I would imagine most people would say, "yes." It's hard to argue against that claim. This not only was an incredible display of golf, but pitted "old verses new," "amateur vs. professional," "hot shots" vs. "has-beens." Actually, Ken Venturi and Harvie Ward weren't just newcomers on the scene. They had established themselves as young guys who could beat anyone, young or old. In today's world, they would have young pros.(Picture a young Tiger Woods

Summary: Great Book if you like to read about Golf
... Amazing recap of a real Match between 4 golf legends. Frost works the story like a great golf course and weaves in a wonderful history of the 4 legends and the how the game of golf changed from an amateur world to the professional world that we all know today. This book is for someone that loves golf....if they are not an avid golfer, I am not sure this book will hold the interest of a general sport fan or just novel reader. I recommend the good, great read. Enjoy

Summary: Interesting golf history
... This book was interesting from a historical perspective. It probably wouldn't be something a non-golfer would appreciate, but it was a fun read. It told a story of some historic golfers that I didn't know much about, but it gave you a appreciation for how the game has developed in recent years. I would recomend it to any golfer that thinks golf begins with Tiger.

[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-08-29 Summary: The Photographs tell Half the Story ... Tiger Woods' book, How I Play Golf, is a thorough self-examination of his game, from green to tee (sic) and everything in between. Filled with fantastic photographs that do half the battle of ingraining the image of good technique into your mind, the book examines each element of the game and the swing, as Tiger plays it. He caveats at the beginning that his goal is not to tell us how to play, but rather to tell us how he plays and what works for him. The book is also filled with lots of fun anecdotes which, now that ...more

I bought this book when it first came out. Seven years later, it continues to be a reference I use over and over. This book is well written, well organized, and is printed on high quality glossy stock. Everything about it is top notch, reflecting the excellence you expect from Tiger Woods. Hands down, with few exceptions, I'd put Tiger and his book up against the teaching-pro trinket books of the day that are spewed out ...more

[2] ... Review | One of golf guru Jim Flick's mantras is that golf is 90 percent mental, and the other 10 percent is mental, too. Dr. Bob Rotella, a noted sports psychologist and performance consultant, roots around the golfer's mind to expose--and analyze--the doubts, the fears, and the frustrations that haunt anyone who's ever picked up a club and swung it. Through anecdote and aphorism he suggests how these mental and emotional hazards can be played through, and, regardless of skill level, how teeing off with a...more
