Golfing Days

A great golf swing is a thing of beauty, as Phil Sheldon shows in hundreds of photographs he's taken over the last 30 years. He's captured all the modern legends--including Jack Nicklaus, Seve Ballesteros, Bernhard Langer, Ernie Els, Annika Sorenstam, and Tiger Woods--in some of the most dramatic moments of their careers. Through his photographs and the accompanying narrative, we get a panoramic view of the recent history of the golfing world, with all its visual excitement and human drama: the great courses; the major tournaments such as the Open, the Masters, and the Ryder Cup; the changing equipment and fashions; as well as the key players, their achievements, and the impact they've had on the sport.
