Introduced in Dan Jenkins's previous uproarious novel of the pro
golf tour, "The Money-Whipped Steer-Job Three-Jack Give-Up Artist,"
Bobby Joe Grooves is now forty-four and still without a win in a
major championship. A student of golf lore, Bobby Joe is well aware
that only a small group of stars have ever won a major at his age
or older, and among them are such immortals as Nicklaus, Boros,
Irwin, and Trevino. It's now or never for Bobby Joe, and excuse him
for thinking that his chances are slim and none.
So it's off to the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open, and the rest
of the PGA Tour for Bobby Joe, who's leaving behind the prospect of
a third ex-wife. On the golf courses he'll face familiar
competitors such as Knut Thorssun and Cheetah Farmer, but the rival
who may loom the largest is the game's newest child star,
nineteen-year-old Scott Pritchard. His talents are the talk of the
Tour--so is his arrogance--and so, by the way, is his stunning mom,
Gwendolyn, a shapely adorable woman who captures Bobby Joe's full
attention and threatens not to let go.
Long revered by his peers as one of the world's best sportswriters,
and beloved by readers for such classics as "Semi-Tough" and "Dead
Solid Perfect," Dan Jenkins is at the top of his form in "Slim and
None." It's packed with authentic insider gems about each of the
majors and hilarious sketches of many of the characters--touring
pros, officials, media, agents, caddies, and ladies--who inhabit
this outrageous and endearing world of sports.
