Tales from Augusta

(Hardcover)-In Tales from Augusta, Jim Hawkins, who covered his first Masters in 1968, takes readers behind the high, thick hedges of Augusta National Golf Club for an intimate, entertaining glimpse of the classic cathedral that is home to golf's most venerable, unique event. From Gene Sarazen's 1935 double-eagle that put Augusta National on the map, to Tiger Woods's Grand Slam victory in 2001, from the tragic collapses of Greg Norman to the heartwarming story of Jose Maria Olazabal, Tales from Augusta takes an inside look at the greats, including Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer, and the not-so-greats, the amateurs and the rookies who have made the Masters the most revered, the most prestigious golf tournament in the world.
