    About this ebook

    Remarkable tales of the crazy courses and challenging climates that take golf to the next level—from the author of Extreme Golf.
     
    For many golfers, the innocent thrill of striking a drive clearly, avoiding a deep sand trap, or holing out an unlikely putt is all they need to make a round (or a whole year) of golf memorable. But there’s a group of modern players in search of something more. They’ve rediscovered the magic of the game in “extreme” golf, and their adventures are about to inspire golfers everywhere.
     
    Here are players like André Tolmé, who decided to turn Mongolia into a par 11,880 course and Torsten Schilling, who spends his weekends teeing off from the side of his boat aiming for sites back on shore. From New Zealand’s naked open to golf in Antarctica, Duncan Lennard describes a world at the very edge of the sport.

      “The Most Creative Shot-makers And Smartest Golfers Generally Rise To The Top At The Open.”

      Jun 15, 2022

      When asked my opinion of what is the best of the four men’s majors, I have no hesitation in plumping for The Open Championship. In fact, the world’s oldest championship is first, and daylight a gallant second. The U.S Open and U.S PGA have, over the

      If Mr Spock ever took the time to cast an alien eye over a pro golf tournament this autumn, he might well be moved to say: “It’s golf, Jim, but not as we know it.” There are various ways to define big-time pro sport but, for now, let’s say it’s a pop

      It comes up a lot. Or at least now and then. Talk of a “world Tour” that is. And the latest incarnation is the Premier Golf League that surfaced – at least publicly – only recently. All of which got me thinking. If we are going to have a world Tour,
