Brett Ogle was one of the world's top 50 golfers, winning 13 times around the world, and is now the host of The PGA Golf Show on Fox Sports. In this light-hearted look at the game he loves, Brett takes us on a tour through the characters, the courses, the ups and downs of being a professional sportsman, and examines golf from both sides of the microphone.
With locker room and on-course encounters with some of the game's most celebrated golfers, including Tiger Woods, Greg Norman and John Daly, Brett gives us stories and anecdotes that illuminate famous names and events. His trademark humour is at the fore as he talks us through playing the toughest holes on the most prestigious courses around the world, including St Andrews and Augusta. We get a stroke-by-stroke account of how not to play the dreaded Road Hole at St Andrews, as well as insights into the strategies used by the world's best golfers to negotiate these iconic courses.
Along the way, we also get the story of how a young man from Goulburn became an international player, with all the trials and tribulations a passionate and talented young golfer must go through to reach the very top of the game. With wit, insight and a wealth of experience at golf's highest levels, Brett's book is perfect for any lover of the game.
Boring
What a boring book. Total waste of money for the story of a never was player who thinks he was a gift to golf. Don't waste your money. Buy a roll of toilet paper, it's a better read and definitely more useful.
