He has lived the game as few others have--from his experience as one of the first white, college-educated caddies in 1985, to hanging out with Arnold Palmer at the Masters. \u003ci\u003eThis Golfing Life\u003c\/i\u003e brings together Bamberger's acclaimed, intimate profiles of stars (Tiger, Jack, and Annika to name a few), as well as the behind-the-scenes people who make the game what it is. In his last round of golf before an amputation, Bamberger's high school golf coach, John Sifaneck, makes his first hole-in-one; John Stark gets Bamberger to relearn the game as a Scotsman; Bob Rubin, a Wall Street master-of-the-universe, builds his own golf course--one so difficult he can't break 100 on it; Bruce Edwards continues to caddie for Tom Watson while dying of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). Bamberger interweaves these stories with his own life in a way that will remind golfers why they love the game.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grove\/Atlantic","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45087934840983,"sku":"9780802142757","price":910.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780802142757.webp?v=1767641103","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/this-golfing-life-9780802142757","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
