Advantages: Provides insights into his rise to be one of the world's top golfers Disadvantages: Could have gone into more detail regarding Sandy's fall from the top of world golf
...This book charts the rise to the pinnacle of his career, his victory in the 1988 US Masters, and also provides insights into his family's background in the game, and the less glamourous side of the life of the professional golfer in the late 1970's. What is particularly touching is the description of the very loving relationship with his father, and how he encouraged and guided Sandy to the top of the sport without ever inflicting pressure as some ... ...journeyman professional.
