The Masters: 101 Reasons to Love Golf's Greatest Tournament
According to award-winning sportswriter Ron Green, Sr., “Augusta National is Eden with flagsticks . . . a place where anyone who loves golf should be allowed, by some heavenly intervention, to go at least once.€ Or more often. Green himself has covered the Masters tournament at Augusta National since the 1950s. He figures he€s spent a year of his life at the course. And he€s never run short of reasons to love the place-or the celebrated competition it hosts each April.
Here are 101 of those reasons, selected by the man who probably knows the tourney-its history, personalities, and most thrilling moments-better than anybody. From the down-home (the peach cobbler served at Augusta National€s clubhouse) to the sublime (Ben Hogan and Byron Nelson€s breathtaking playoff for the 1942 championship), Green has chosen the players, the shots, the challenges, and the traditions that make the Masters so memorable.
Illustrated with a mix of historical photos and full-color contemporary images of Augusta National-and of the stars who play the course today-The Masters makes a rewarding gift for lovers of golf and, especially, fans of the tournament. This must-have golf book will be published in time for the 2008 Masters.
