A best-selling writer and former club and touring professional profiles golfers and their relationships with the fathers who introduced them to the game. The interplay between father and son has long been one of golf ’s most essential and enigmatic relationships. "In Golf Dads", Curt Sampson brings to life ten remarkable stories of golfers, their fathers, and the game that brings them together. The stories feature well-known subjects, including Michelle Wie, Ben Hogan, Lee Trevino, David Feherty, and others—such as six-year-old phenom A.J. Beechler—not yet known to the world. “This is a book about fathers,” Sampson writes, “using golf as a wedge to pry open a few insights.”We get up close with the embarrassing Byung Wook Wie and his talented daughter at a PGA Tour event in Pennsylvania; travel to the Mexican jungle with a club pro bearing his father’s ashes in a black Hogan shag bag; journey to San Francisco for transplant surgery for a golf pro father from his golf pro son. For fans of James Dodson’s "Final Rounds" or Jody Vasquez’s "Afternoons with Mr. Hogan", "Golf Dads" is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever been handed a worn club by his father or who has watched his child swing a stick at a rock and marveled at the possibilities.
