"Great, great book. It's suspenseful. It makes golf interesting, which I consider to be no small feat. Does an excellent job of describing and differentiating the many golfers who make an appearance in the story. Just well written all around."

"This isn't exactly an ultimately adventurous book, if you know what I mean. But this book is a great story or perserverance, and the pursuit of dreams. The movie made followed the book really good too."
