Synopsis

The Meaning of Golf is an original and enjoyable golf book. Thoughtful and amusing, it is an excellent read and a wonderful gift.

Golf Monthly Magazine describes it as 'funny, observant and insightful, a tremendous job.' 

The Irish Examiner says it is ‘wise and witty’ and that ‘anyone interested in the game of golf, its great champions and championships should love this book.’  

Taking a sideways look at golfers from President Trump to Seve Ballesteros, Tiger Woods and Old Tom Morris, and ranging across the US, the British Isles and far beyond, The Meaning of Golf investigates the essence of the game, what makes it so attractive and so addictive. 

Its 18 chapters are a series of short studies, entertaining travelogues and meetings with the game's greatest players, teachers and course architects, as well as other less famous, but no less brilliant, golf aficionados. It’s not schmaltzy and saccharine, nor full of tired golfing anecdotes. Rather, it's authentic and absorbing, from the interview with Tom Watson in the opening chapter, to the engaging characters encountered golfing on the Scottish linksland and the global elite found schmoozing at Augusta National.

Craig Morrison is the author of 18 Greatest Scottish Golf Holes as well as 18 Greatest Irish Golf Holes. New York Magazine calls them 'the most beautiful golf books in the world.' The Wall Street Journal says they are 'superb' and Forbes Magazine describes them as 'instantly collectible works of art.' Craig Morrison contributes to Golf Magazine and other international titles.
