Synopsis

In 2015, shortly after his 50th birthday, Doug deGrood, an otherwise-healthy advertising executive and avid golfer was diagnosed with stage I bladder cancer which quickly progressed to stage IV. The Right Side of the Fairway chronicles his compelling journey while applying well-known principles of golf to living a better, healthier life. From "loosening your grip pressure" to "focusing on your short game," the approachable, metaphorical lessons deGrood shares are sure to appeal to golfers, but have meaning for non-golfers as well.
