Two Good Rounds: 19th Hole Stories from the World's Greatest Golfers - Hardcover

I lift a glass of Martell V.S.O.P. cognac to the conception and result of this book. --Bob Spiwak

Everybody loves a celebration and golfers are no exception. It has long been a tradition after a round of golf to gather together and celebrate a win or merely enjoy the company of friends, new and old, with a second round at "the 19th hole", a slang term used in golf that refers to a pub, bar, or restaurant on or near the golf course. Two Good Rounds is an international tribute to great golfers and the golf lifestyle, which often includes the enjoyment of drinks. In each chapter, golf writer Elisa Gaudet asks a notable professional golfer the same questions: What is your favorite drink? What is your favorite clubhouse or 19th hole? And what is a special time or memory from a 19th hole? The results yielded a wide array of answers ranging from crazy celebrations after a win to heartfelt memories of childhoods spent playing golf with family and friends. From the Arnold Palmer (1/2 lemonade, ½ iced tea) to the margarita (the preferred drink of tour star Vijay Singh), drinks and golf are inextricably linked. Two Good Rounds shows you how. Contents: Arnold Palmer, Padraig Harrington, Darren Clarke, Annika Sörenstam, Graeme McDowell, Luke Donald, Gary Player, Bernhard Langer, Lee Westwood, Stuart Appleby, Michael Campbell, Jim Furyk, Angel Cabrera, Jack Nicklaus, Vijay Singh, Ernie Els & Seve Ballesteros.
