Making the Cut
McFarland & Co Inc (Verlag)
978-1-4766-7619-7 (ISBN)
The success of the PGA Tour lies in the compelling stories of the individual quests for achievement--making the tournament cut, winning a tournament, qualifying for the FedEx Cup Playoffs, and the ultimate challenge of making it onto the Tour, where victory is often determined by a single stroke. Based on interviews with more than twenty professional golfers, this book provides new insight into the PGA Tour system, the events affecting tournament outcomes, and the career-changing opportunities that result.
John A. Fortunato, Ph.D., is a professor at New York’s Fordham University in the Gabelli School of Business, Area of Communication and Media Management. He is the author of five books and more than 50 journal articles and book chapters.
