Terrific Read!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Payne at Pinehurst: The Greatest U.S. Open Ever (Hardcover)
Just finished reading Payne at Pinehurst--couldn't put it down.I'm a big golf fan and that U.S. Open ranks as the best I've seen. The detail Chastain goes into was fascinating in describing Payne Stewart's path toward claiming golf's ultimate prize Chastain obviously knows his subject well and has a way with words. I'd highly recommend this book to anyone, and not just golfers.

This review is from: Payne at Pinehurst: A Memorable U.S. Open in the Sandhills of Carolina (Paperback)
This book is not really just about a great golf tournament, but about what it means to grow up and become a man. The younger Payne Stewart, so hated in Europe, resembled a nice but spoilt frat boy with a golf club. Of course he wasn't really all like that, but the accusation stuck. Just as most frat boys actually grow into becoming the best fathers and husbands, this book chronicles how Payne grew to become in the late 90s, in his early 40s, the best golfer on the planet, and about the last person to really, really ignore what Tiger Woods was doing on a golf course.
