Phil Mickelson is one of the most compelling figures in sports. For more than three decades, he has been among the best golfers in the world, and his unmatched longevity was exemplified at the 2021 PGA Championship, when Mickelson, on the cusp of turning fifty-one, became the oldest player in history to win a major championship. In this raw and unauthorised biography, Shipnuck captures a singular life defined by thrilling victories, crushing defeats and countless controversies.

Obnoxious writing style, Irritating Narration
Reviewed: 29-06-22
Written like a GCSE paper - Very irritating use of Americanism's made worse by the fact that it was narrated by the author. Maybe it would be better read rather than audiobook. Some interesting insights into the player, but all significantly biased by the authors opinion. The book is barely more than a couple of podcasts of content. Glad I didn't buy it and used the free audible trial!
