Recently Read: The Scorecard Always Lies
If you are a golfer and enjoy watching and reading about the PGA Tour, Chris Lewis' The Scorecard Always Lies is an entertaining read.
Lewis covers the Tour for Sports Illustrated, and he obviously has an existing rapport with many of the more colorful players in the game (Daly, Woods, Mickelson, Couch, DiMarco, etc.). What is perhaps unique about this book is Lewis' stated goal to tell the personal side of the Tour players's lives - as opposed to just covering tournament play. We get insight into what they do between rounds (Couch ends up in a New Orleans tattoo parlor in the early morning hourse before a win), in the morning before teeing off (Mickelson napping at the Masters in the locker room before his second green jacket victory) and travel to and from tournaments (private air for the top players, commercial coach for the others).
If you enjoy golf, this is a good summer read.
