Product Description
"Tom Callahan is the most complete sports writer in America. He knows the most and writes the best. In this journey, In Search of Tiger, he discloses the athlete and the man and makes us like and understand both. Pure Callahan excellence."
--Roger Rosenblatt, Time
"We all relate to the relationship between father and son or parents and their children. That's where Tom started looking for Tiger, and he found him." --Gary Player
"When it comes to style, fresh insight, and perspective, few in a crowded field can even make the cut. As expected, Tom betters par by several strokes."
--Bob Costas, NBC
"Tom Callahan writing about anything is like Julia Child saying, 'If you don't have
any plans, stick around and I'll make you dinner.'"
--Tony Kornheiser, Washington Post
"Tom Callahan knows the game of golf as well as anyone in the business. Many years, not just many nights, went into the telling of this story. A lot of Tom's heart is in
here, too." --Jack Nicklaus
"In Search of Tiger deserves a place among the finest books ever written on golf or sports. It is the only Tiger book you ever need to read." --Dan Jenkins
"Nobody now writing about sports brings more substantial gifts to that strange line of work than Tom Callahan. The voice is untheatrically eloquent, wry, and wise, frequently letting us in on unobtrusive truths that turn out to be strikingly relevant. His enthusiasm for his subject is tempered by a civilised worldliness. He is never cynical but, as was said of the great Chicago columnist Mike Royko, he is baloney-proof. I have long been convinced that he has a clearer understanding than anybody else I know of the essence and implicationsof the Tiger Woods phenomenon. In Search of Tiger reinforces that conviction."
--Hugh McIlvanney, The Sunday Times of London
"From the Hardcover edition."
Product Description
After following the notoriously private Tiger Woods around the world of golf for over a decade, Tom Callahan has written the seminal book on this golfing great. He has covered Woods at all the majors, including the Masters, the US Open and the British Open, and he was there every step of the way during Tiger's heart-stopping race to make history by clinching the string of majors nicknamed the 'Tiger Slam'. Callahan enjoyed a certain access to the man and his parents, and his relationship with the family then deepened when he undertook a remarkable journey to Vietnam to learn the fate of the South Vietnamese soldier befriended by Earl Woods during the war and after whom Woods named his son. Along the way, Tom Callahan hears from everyone who is anyone in the world of Tiger Woods, including Phil Mickelson, Jack Nicklaus, David Duval, Butch Harmon, Ernie Els and, of course, Tiger's ubiquitous mother and father. While learning about Tiger, we also enjoy a bird's-eye view of golf, as it is now with Tiger on the scene, and as it was for centuries before.
