What I’m Listening To
The Book
Writing a book can be a lot of fun, especially if you’re writing a book about golf. When I started research for the book, I knew practically nothing about the game. But now, four years later, it could be said that I have become a little obsessed with it...!
Last August, my husband Tim, my sister Antonia, and I attended the 2019 Northern Trust Tournament at Liberty National, my first official PGA tour event. I will tell you that there is nothing like watching the greats play in person. Of course, the crystal blue skies and the views overlooking the Statue of Liberty didn’t hurt, either!
It is hard to believe that this was a year ago. Here’s hoping we can get out there again soon.
