The Elements of Scoring
Simon & Schuster (Verlag)
978-0-684-86402-0 (ISBN)
For four decades Raymond Floyd has proved to be one of the most dangerous opponents in golf. First on the PGA tour through his captaincy of The Ryder Cup to his sterling record in Senior PGA events, Floyd established himself as one of the greatest winners the game has known, thanks to his ability to get the most out of his game even when he wasn't playing well. In THE ELEMENTS OF SCORING, Floyd shares his secrets for better scores. He shows that golf is not a game of great shots, but one of surviving mistakes; he teaches the right kind of mistakes to make - better to miss left or right than short or long - and stresses the importance of practicing the most valuable shot in golf: the six-foot putt. Raymond Floyd crystallises a lifetime of golfing knowledge into a concise and compelling package, giving every golfer the chance to be a sharper, keener and more dangerous opponent.
Raymond Floyd has won 35 official gold tournaments (22 on the regular tour, 13 on the senior tour), including four majors. He made history in 1992 when he became the first player to win on both the PGA Tour and the Senior Tour in the same year. He lives in Palm Beach, Florida. Jamie Diaz is a senior writer for Sports Illustrated. He lives in Temecula, California. Arnold Palmer is one of the most storied and successful golfers to have ever played the game. He won the Masters Tournament four times, in 1958, 1960, 1962 and 1964 and the U.S. Open in spectacular fashion in 1960 at Cherry Hills Country Club in Denver, coming back from seven strokes down in the final round. Palmer also won the British Open in 1961 and 1962. Among the majors, only the PGA Championship has eluded him -- he finished second three times. He was also Ryder Cup captain in 1963. Arnold Palmer divides his time between Latrobe, a small industrial town in Western Pennsylvania where he was born, and Florida. He is the author of a number of practical golf guides, as well as the bestselling autobiography, A GOLFER'S LIFE.
