The world’s greatest golf advice condensed to fifty practical tips. “I wasted a lot of time believing that every ‘secret’ I came across would transform my game, but it’s when you can take that tip and test it yourself that you give yourself an exceptional advantage,” writes John Richardson. An enthusiastic but average golfer, John was keen to improve his game. So he set himself a challenge—in one year, he would take thirty-three strokes off his game and play a level par round. Against all the odds, he did it. During that year of living, breathing, and sleeping golf, John delved deeply into how golfers hone their skills and met some of the best coaches and players in the world. He also obsessively tested hundreds of tips to see which ones really worked. In this book, he shares the very best of those tips and how they helped him transform his game. 50 Greatest Golf Tips is essential reading for golfers who want to make their dream round a reality and includes brilliant advice on improving your swing, putting and short game, and the all-important mental exercises that can give you the edge.

The host and coproducer of the megahit reality show The Apprentice presents a unique collection of golf advice. From Palmer and Player, Mickelson and Vijay to Pat Boone, Stone Phillips, and even Yogi Berra, these players, teachers, businesspeople, and celebrities will help you play better and score lower. Everyone who plays golf has that little nugget of information they turn to on the course. But never before has such an array of golfing advice been pulled together in one place. Donald Trump, himself an avid—and very good—golfer, asked his friends, colleagues, and playing companions to offer thoughts on everything from the mental game to the swing to putting to playing golf the right way. And golfers being what they are, none could resist sharing words of wisdom. So here we find Vijay Singh telling us about playing simply: “You don’t need to get your golf swing by going through video cameras and stuff like that. Just kind of go out there and find yourself.” Baseball Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith talks about not overswinging: “Just learn to allow the club to do what it’s supposed to do . . . because the ball is sitting still.” Actor Michael Douglas has a specific routine to slow his tempo—he says his wife’s name, and doesn’t even think of starting to bring the club down until he gets to “Jones.” Taken together, these more than two hundred entries create a unique handbook, covering every aspect of the game—and ranging from the lighthearted to the deadly serious. Donald Trump’s book of advice is certain to take its place next to Harvey Penick’s Little Red Book as the ultimate in golf instruction.
