Alun Evans' the Golf Majors Book, 2019 - Alun Evans - Bog

This, the next annual edition of Evans' 'The Golf Majors' series, brings the story of golf's greatest Championships bang up to date. Filled as it is with all the facts, results and records going back to 1860 when the first-ever Open Championship was held at Prestwick in Scotland, it still manages to hark back to last summer and provide full reports on the 2018 Majors. The emergence of Brooks Koepka as the sport's latest multiple Major Champion is chronicled in detail: so too, the return of Tiger Woods, once more a creditable force in Majors when many, the author included, felt that so deep had been his decline, such an astonishing recovery was beyond the wildest hopes of his millions of still-faithful fans. Whereas the book unashamedly pays homage to the events of yesteryear, and those that made them so often so memorable, it still finds time to deal with the future and looks in some detail into the Majors of 2019, where for many the high spot will be the return of the Open in July to the island of Ireland, and idyllic Royal Portrush, for the first time since 1951. Not satisfied to leave the reader short-changed Evans has made the end of the book the golf fan's ultimate fantasy, with page after page of Major records - all in all, it is the complete companion (and the only one of its kind) to see you through this year's Major Championships and look forward to the next.
