Product Description
When you watch professional golfers on television, sometimes it's hard to believe that they're playing the same game as the rest of us. The drives are long, the approach shots hit the green, and the putts break the way they're supposed to. You'd think they'd never heard the word shank in their lives.
But occasionally even golfing's elite can descend to the level of the everyday hacker. When Bad Things Happen to Good Golfers recounts those rare moments when the game's greatest showed their human side. Here you'll read about such gut-wrenching moments as Arnold Palmer's famed "dirty dozen" at the Los Angles Open in 1961, Greg Norman's collapse at the 1996 Masters, and Tiger Woods's whiff and other misadventures in the thick gorse of Royal Troon at the 1997 British Open.
Sam Snead, Lee Trevino, Raymond Floyd, and Ernie Els are among the other golf luminaries whose moments of infamy are found in When Bad Things Happen to Good Golfers-a book that lends credence to the duffer's old adage, "It happens to the best of them."

4.0 out of 5 stars Golfers Are Humans, Too, January 14, 2001
By David (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
I really liked this book. It made me realize that while golfers seem like they always hit perfect shots and never mess up, they have had their share of blunders as well. The book contains mistakes by golfers such as Arnold Palmer, Greg Norman, Tiger Woods, Sam Snead, Lee Trevino, Raymond Floyd, and Ernie Els.
