In all sporting contests, success and inspiration compete with
failure and loss of nerve and golf is a more public showcase for
human fallibility and eccentricity than many other sports. For
every Paul McGinley or Larry Mize snatching unexpected victory
there is somebody whose overconfidence or moment of self-doubt
leaves the spectator burying his head in the nearest bunker. From
Victorian times to the twenty-first century, Classic Golf Clangers
takes a look at some of the moments their perpetrators would rather
forget - whether it's Scotland's Bobby Cruickshank knocking himself
out at the 1934 US Open or Jean van der Velde going for a paddle at
Carnoustie - you're sure to find some of your favourite golfing
gaffes in the pages of this book. Hale Irwin, Doug Sanders, Sam
Snead and the Great White Shark all make an appearance for their
contribution to at least one toe-curling moment. This book will
appeal to golf lovers - or lovers of any sport - irrespective of
age or ability, as a reminder of how human we are, and how easy it
is to slice into the deepest rough from the broadest of fairways.
