The year: 1956. Eddie Lowery, once caddie to Francis Ouimet, now a
wealthy car dealer and avid supporter of amateur golf, boasts to
fellow millionaire George Coleman that two of his salesmen - US
amateur champion Harvie Ward and up-and-coming star Ken Venturi -
could beat any golfers in the world in a best ball match. Coleman
asks Lowery how he plans to prove it. 'Bring any two golfers of
your choice to the course tomorrow morning,' Lowery tells him, 'and
we'll settle the issue.' Coleman shows up all right - with Ben
Hogan and Byron Nelson, the game's greatest living professionals.
In Mark Frost's peerless hands, complete with the recollections of
all the participants, the story of this foursome and the greatest
private match ever played comes vividly to life.
