Publisher's summary

Iconic humorist Dan Jenkins bring his matchless sense of hilarity to this riotous send-up of professional golf.

Forty-something sportswriter Jack Brannon is bored to tears with the men's tour. So he decides to check out Ginger Clayton, the hot, new franchise babe on the ladies' links. Things get interesting in a hurry, as it becomes clear somebody wants the gorgeous superstar disqualified for good.

Critic reviews

"Dan Jenkins is the nearest thing to Ring Lardner this generation has ever seen. No one has captured the essential lunacy of the 20th-century sports (and TV) scene as accurately and hilariously as this." ( Los Angeles Times)

Dan Jenkins is extraordinary

The only other writer who could make me enjoy golf was Ian Fleming. And even James Bond couldn’t make me enjoy it quite this much.
