From the Foreword by Jim Nantz: "The first time I saw him in college, I knew Fred was destined for greatness. Although I didn't play in Fred's group that day, I certainly felt his presence. While I plodded along, hitting numerous pitch-shots en route to a wayward 81, Fred was bombing tee shots into us with amazing ease, firing an effortless 70, the day's lowest round. I knew then, witnessing that indescribable swing, that I would never beat him in golf." From the Foreword by Paul Marchand: "Finally! A book to help illuminate the Fred fascination. On the following pages you can enjoy some insight into all those qualities that make Fred Couple such a compelling sports star. His humor and humility have been his ever-present personality traits, and there has always been a real sincerity in Fred's uncomplicated and unaffected nature. While looking so calm and relaxed, Fred performs his skills right out of his soul."
