Acclaimed sports writer John Feinstein tells the stories of the players who competed for the coveted PGA Tour positions in the 2005 Q School and the powerful lessons they learned along the way. With arresting accounts from established winners, rising stars, the defeated, and the endlessly hopeful, he unearths the story behind the PGA's brutal all-or-nothing competition.Customer Review: Q School
Couldn't put it down. If you're a golfer this is a must read. If you aren't a golfer, but like real drama this is also for you. Feinstein gives you everything you need to understand it all and be intrigued. He's a terrific writer.
Customer Review: Disappointed
I really enjoyed A Good Walk Spoiled and picked this book up when I was looking for something a little less heavy than what I had been reading. Granted, it is an easy read and won't strain your brain. However, my biggest complaint is the constant repeating of facts and anecdotes. This really drove me insane as I can remember something that I had just read a couple of pages back! The player stories just never really "tugged" at me nor made me really care about their stories very much. In retrospect, maybe I shouldn't have expected much lightness when reading about Q School and maybe it really isn't that interesting of an event. The book is OK, but don't expect too much.
