Item Description
Peter Jacobsen, winner of seven Tour events, was named the PGA's Comeback Player of the Year in 2003-and the next year promptly won the U.S. Senior Open.
Jacobsen has the deserved reputation of being professional golf's leading raconteur, and his second book "Embedded Balls" (following 1993's Buried Lies) only reaffirms that distinction. For nearly 30 years, Peter Jacobsen has been a favorite of golf fans and fellow golfers. In "Embedded Balls" he writes an all-new collection of stories from the surprisingly wild and weird world of golf, writing with casual informality that fans admire in Jake's style on and off the course (and which stands in stark contrast to the stone-faced concentration of so many PGA competitors). Jacobsen also provides detailed accounts of his inspirational victories in the Hartford Open at age 50 and in the U.S. Senior Open following hip surgery.
From Jack Nicklaus to Michelle Wie, Tiger Woods to Vijay Singh, Jacobsen takes you behind the scenes of the pro tour like no one else can, as he tells you what it's like to play the PGA and Champions tours simultaneously; how John Daly nearly decapitated a spectator; what players really say to each other in the locker room; and how Jacobsen won the U.S. Open...kind of. Required reading for all golf fans who long for a glimpse of the humanity behind their heroes' furrowed brows!
