Multi-winner Ballesteros is a golfer of great courage and genius. One of the most complete golfers currently playing, he is a two times US Masters and three times British Open winner. Bill Elliot has been following his career and life closely for over 15 years and in this biography explains what has brought him to the pinnacles of success. The youngest of four brothers of a farmer living in Pedrena in northern Spain, Ballesteros learnt to play golf with borrowed clubs and took naturally to the game. When on form he is a rare breed of golfer with such a natural rhythm to his shots and with such a range of emotions that he attracts and captivates the galleries whenever he plays. Bill Elliot looks at his character - charming but stubborn, intensely private, fiercely patriotic, and at the events which have shaped his life, such as the death of his father a few years ago which left him devastated and his marriage to Carmen, daughter of a wealthy Spanish industrialist and the birth of his first child.
