Stats and biographies updated to 2003.

Today, more people than ever are playing golf -- from exclusive country clubs to public courses. The game now has its own cable television network with programs 24 hours-a-day.

Golf is a beautifully illustrated reference for any golf fan and also the perfect tribute to the game's top 300 men and women pros:

  • Bobby Jones, the great American, true-blue amateur
  • Arnold Palmer, the first star of the TV era
  • Gene Sarazen, first to win all four grand slam events
  • Mildred Zaharias, the beloved "Babe"
  • Walter Hagen, ever flamboyant
  • Jack Nicklaus, the world's most celebrated golfer
  • Tiger Woods, the phenomenal player who will dominate the game for years to come
  • Other favorites included are Fred Couples, Greg Norman, Ben Crenshaw, Nick Price, Ernie Els, Chi Chi Rodriguez, Nick Faldo, Sam Snead, Tom Watson and Fuzzy Zoeller.

Player profiles and fact boxes give name, date of birth, career highlights, major championship titles and Ryder/Curtis Cup appearances. Wonderful photos and stories relive the most celebrated and unforgettable moments of all the major championships.

About the Author:

Alistair Tait, former editor of Golf Monthly magazine and Today's Golfer magazine, is a member of the Association of Golf Writers and a qualified Rules of Golf Referee, having passed the Royal & Ancient's Refereeing and Rules of Golf examination at St. Andrews in 1995.

Review:
Includes bios on 275 past and present players but doesn't read like a dry reference book and includes wonderful photography. (Tom Kensler Denver Post 1999-12-19)

This is an impressive book with beautiful illustrations. The information it contains is equally extraordinary ... This is a fascinating book for anyone who loves golf, or wants to learn about golfers. (Nancy P Reed American Reference Book Annual 2000-01-01)

Contains some fascinating accounts of miracle shots and near misses, tournaments and courses, along with a Fact File containing statistical information on each golfer. (Patricia Billing Good Times 2000-04-01)
