"My sincere wish is that you enjoy reading these stories at least half as much as we enjoyed living them."
- Gary Player, Winner of Nine Major Golf Championships and Member of the World Golf Hall of Fame
If you love golf, you love it all - its illustrious past, its nail-biting present, and its unforetold future. If only you could experience it all, from the vantage point of someone who has "been there and done that" alongside golf legends who have played and won around the world. Now you can. Caddie-to-the-stars Lawrence Malestic's behind-the-scenes and on-the-fairway memoir is like a time machine that takes you back in time to witness an extraordinary era in the history of professional golf. Open the pages of
Golf Road: My Time with The Masters of the Game and travel with Malestic on his remarkable journey from novice country-club looper to professional-tour caddie. His stories are equal parts educational and entertaining, hilarious and harrowing ... and now they're yours for the taking.
A must-read for both enthusiasts and casual fans of the game of golf! Lawrence Malestic's warts-and-all saga encompasses 14 years of traversing green miles, from his "Caddyshack" years at North Shore Country Club outside Chicago to packing for (and rubbing elbows with) some of the most titanic names to ever don a glove and stick a peg in the ground - iconic players like Chi Chi Rodriguez, Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Severiano Ballesteros, and Lee Trevino. Through these never-before-told stories, you'll visit 18 countries and the top golf venues on earth - from the birthplace of the game, St. Andrews in Scotland, to the lush and hallowed grounds of Augusta National.
With a foreword written by golf superstar Gary Player, one of Malestic's former bosses.
