Pebble Beach Stories: Three Days from a Golfer's Notebook, Hörbuch, Digital, 28min
Anyone who plays golf has Pebble Beach on the mind. It's like dreaming of heaven. Pebble Beach Golf Links is, in many ways, the golfer's heaven. The audio documentary, Pebble Beach Stories: Three Days from a Golfer's Notebook, taps into that very palpable affinity and caresses the personal connections so many golfers have to this historic golf course. Not only is Pebble Beach ranked yearly as the top golf course in America, and sometimes the world, by numerous publications and organizations, but it is also one of the most revered sports venues in the United States, right up there with Wrigley Field and Yankee Stadium. And the unmatched affinity comes not only from professional golfers but from beginners and every 30-handicapper who has ever picked up a club. Pebble Beach Stories: Three Days from a Golfer's Notebook captures the spirituality of Pebble Beach and delves into the souls of the people who've played it, plan to play, and dream of playing it. No matter who we are, what we do, or how much money we have, Pebble has a way of putting our collective love of golf all in one place. The place simply bonds people. That's why so many Saturday morning hackers, scratch players, women, kids, and Jack Nicklaus all agree, if they had just one last round to play, they would play it at Pebble Beach. Language: English.

Miracle on the 17th Green , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 171min
Just when we need some magic in our lives, best-selling author James Patterson and Peter de Jonge bring us a stirring tale of life, love, and the power of miracles. Travis McKinley is an ordinary man living an ordinary life - he has a job that he despises, a marriage that has lost its passion, children from whom he feels disconnected, and at age 50, a sense that he has accomplished nothing of consequence with his life. But on Christmas Day, he goes out to play a round of golf, and for the first time, he finds himself in the "zone". He sees the putting line that has eluded him for years. Always a fairly good golfer, he finds himself playing like a pro and is so caught up in his excitement that he continues to play, sinking putt after putt, missing Christmas dinner with his wife and family. It is too much for his already troubled marriage. His family collapes - but Travis is soon too busy living his dream to notice. His amazing new golf skills catapult him into the PGA Senior Open at Pebble Beach, where he advances to the final round with two of his heroes, Jack Nicklaus and Raymond Floyd. And with his wife, children, and a live television audience watching, a miracle takes place on the 17th green that will change Travis, and his family, forever. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Arnie: The Life of Arnold Palmer , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 519min
At last, a major biography of one of golf's greatest legends. Arnold Palmer changed golf - and sports - forever. The winner of more than 90 tournaments, including four Masters, the numbers on his resume don't do justice to the greatness of his achievements. Because Palmer wasn't just a golfer in the golden age of the sport, knocking heads with other greats like Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player - he also was one of the first sportsmen to understand the marketing possibilities of his, and all, sports. Forging an alliance with sports agent Mark McCormick, Palmer parlayed his brilliance on the course into deals and paydays previously unheard of and paved the way for the multimillion-dollar deals that are standard across all sports. But no one ever ended up hating Palmer for being a businessman as much as a golfer - instead, he was beloved for his powerful hitting, his nerve on the greens, and his great relationships with fans, whose nickname for him ("the King") was heartfelt. When Palmer died in 2016, it was front-page news across the country. Tom Callahan knew Palmer well for many years and has assembled here a trove of anecdotes and great stories from all the key people in Palmer's life. Put together, the stories tell an extraordinary sports and human story, the definitive oral biography of one of the greatest golfers ever to play the game. ungekürzt. Language: English.

How to identify a perfect mate 2. How to improve a struggling relationship 3. How to potentially prevent a relationship from collapsing 4. How to improve and keep exciting an existing relationship 5. How to build a more solid foundation for faithful happiness 6. The formula for happy, loving, long-term relationships As children we learn that trying to put a square object in a round hole of the same size will never work. A piece of the wrong shape and description will just not fit together, even if we try to force it. When we pause, and analyze what works, what does not work and why, we begin to assemble the pieces in a perfect harmony. Anticipating that the same can be applied to human relationships, John sets out to track down and understand the secret formula that only a few people know and reveals it within. Having played Tour golf, John includes some fun stories of his experiences with other Tour champions like Jack Nicklaus, Billy Casper, Butch Baird, Gary Player, Bill Johnston, Shelley Hamlin, and others, making it an interesting listen for golfers and non-golfers alike. ungekürzt.

Hogan , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 425min
Ben Hogan was the hero no one knew. No one knew what drove him to practice until his hands bled. No one knew what private demons built the high walls that surrounded him. No one was even sure how he hit a golf ball with such godlike precision. He built a legend and a mystique that captivates golfers still. The components of this mystique were easy to see: a silent, almost eerie concentration that intimidated his opponents, a presence any politician or actor would envy, and an ability to hit a ball so squarely it sizzled as it left his club. Accomplishment was another part of his aura. Ben Hogan won four U.S. Opens in six years, three of them after a near-fatal head-on automobile collision with a bus. His injuries limited him to six tournaments in 1953, but he won five of them, three of them majors. It was arguably the greatest year ever in the history of professional golf. Magazines placed his face on their covers, New York City gave him a ticker-tape parade, and Hollywood made a movie of his life. Yet even in the midst of all this acclaim, myth distorted and obscured Ben Hogan. Here at last is the Hogan no reader has ever encountered. From the poverty and suicidal death of his father that scarred him as a youth, to the failure and conflict that stalked him into middle age, Hogan is the rare sports book that transcends the genre. Combining interviews with Byron Nelson, Jack Nicklaus, Sam Snead, and scores of other golf professionals, as well as insights from Hogan¿s friends and business associates, Hogan traces the life of an amazing man and tells an unforgettable story. ungekürzt.

Who's Your Caddy: Looping for the Great, Near Great, and Reprobates of Golf, Hörbuch, Digital, 324min
The funniest and most popular sportswriter in America abandons his desk at Sports Illustrated to caddy for some of the world’s most famous golfers, and some celebrity duffers, recounting it all in this hilarious and revealing look at the world of golf.Who knows a golfer best? Who’s with them every minute of every round, hears their muttering, knows whether they cheat? Their caddies, of course. So, sportswriter Rick Reilly figured that he could learn a lot about the players and their games by caddying, even though he had absolutely no idea how to do it. Amazingly, some of the best golfers in the world - including Jack Nicklaus, David Duval, Tom Lehman, John Daly, Casey Martin, and Jill McGill - agreed to let Reilly carry their bags at actual PGA and LPGA Tour events. To round out his portrait of the golfing life, Reilly also caddied at the Masters, persuaded Deepak Chopra and Donald Trump to use him as a caddy, accompanied high-rolling golf hustlers in Las Vegas around the course, and carried the bag for a blind golfer.In Who’s Your Caddy?, Reilly chronicles his experiences in the same inimitable style that makes his back-page column for Sports Illustrated a must-read for more than 20 million people every week. From his laugh-out-loud portrait of Deepak Chopra decomposing on the green, to his portraits of good ol’ boys who bet $100,000 a round, to his hilarious descriptions of his own ineptitude as a caddy, to his insights into what makes the greats of golf so great, Reilly combines a wicked wit with an expert’s eye in a most original and entertaining look at golf. Who’s Your Caddy? is the next best thing to a great round of golf. It is sure to delight low-handicappers, high-handicappers, and everyone in between. Language: English. Narrator: Grover Gardner.

Always By My Side, Hörbuch, Digital, 305min
From February to April 2007, starting with his play-by-play call of Super Bowl XLI, Jim Nantz had a historic 63-day broadcasting run as he became the first commentator to broadcast the Super Bowl, the NCAA Final Four, and the Masters?, all in the same year. Yet the man who inspired him to pursue his broadcasting dream, his father, was unable to share the voyage with him. In Always By My Side: A Father's Grace and a Sports Journey Unlike Any Other, 2007 Sportscaster of the Year Nantz recounts how he felt his father's presence every step of the way - and through this championship journey, he celebrates the people and moments that tap into all the goodness that his dad - and his dad's generation - represent.Always By My Side traces Nantz's career, from creating his own imaginary TV studio he created as a boy to his college days rooming with future PGA Tour golfers to his chance meeting with NBC Sports producer Don Ohlmeyer that started him on a path that led to a successful CBS network audition at the age of 26. Along the way, he remembers his friendships with such sports royalty as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Peyton Manning, Tony Dungy, Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, Mike Krzyzewski, and Bill Walton - as well as Hollywood A-listers like Clint Eastwood and Sean Connery, all the time remaining humble and grateful for the opportunity to be afforded such an amazing life. Nantz also recalls father-figures he found throughout his life when his own ailing father was unable to be physically with him: George H. W. Bush, Ken Venturi, Jim McKay, Pat Summerall, Billy Packer, Frank Chirkinian, and others. Ultimately, Always By My Side is a collection of poignant stories that explore the theme of fathers and sons who have bonded through a common love of sports. It turns every day into Father's Day.
