Q School golfers live on a knife edge, hovering above the abyss of disaster and these stories capture their dilemma to perfection; this book does for Q School what Four-iron in the Soul did for caddies --GolfPunk Magazine
Product Description
Qualifying School, or Q School as it is more commonly called, is the end-of-season exam that only the lucky few - just over 3% of the field - will win the Tour Card that is the passport to a whole year of million pound prize funds. The seven journeyman golfers in this book include two players trying to emerge from the shadows of world famous fathers; one who suffered a freak injury and now faces bankruptcy; one who was predicted to be a millionaire before he was 25 and is still waiting; another who won fame on a TV golf show but no fortune; a former Tour champion whose career is at a crossroads; and a classic golf professional who still believes he is good enough to compete at the highest level. All they have to do is turn up at the most important tournament of their lives - Q School - and play great golf under the severest pressure of their lives. Ross Biddicombe has written and engrossing docu-drama bringing into stark relief Kipling's observation that in life and in sport the potential for triumph and tragedy is always present. This is sportswriting at its best.
