No order the the story. Jumped around from one player and then back. Too much repetition.

Ok stories, no real order to them.

These firsthand accounts do nothing but add to the elegance surrounding Augusta. Stories so vivid that you can smell the grass.

A book of what makes The Masters, The Masters.

Good book but the pronunciations of names was funny. The narrator mangles Seve’s name over and over in the weirdest way…

“Sieve” Ballasteros

If you are a golf fan you probably know all of these stories. Impressively, it is still a fun listen. I just wish they would get performers who know just a little about the subject to read. Some of the name pronunciations are pretty bad.

Solid
