Books By Tony Jacklin - Author

My golfing 'wow' moment arrived as a young child. Sitting in my grandparents' living room, watching on a grainy old black-and-white TV set, I was entranced by this shadowy figure reacting with stunned surprise after delivering a hole-in-one. It was, I discovered, the first time that particular feat had been televised live in Britain. That magical stroke by Tony Jacklin sparked my interest in the game. I eventually went on to fulfil my dream of becoming a sports journalist and ended up making a special friend of that shadowy figure who popped up on our screen in September 1967. To you 'Sir Tony', thanks a million for affording me the honour and privilege of helping to compile this account of a remarkable Ryder Cup career.
