I would like to share a Sports Related book or Self-Help book for the Golfers in our lives. The book is called Life on the Green: Lessons and Wisdom from Legends of Golf by Ann Liguori. I received a copy of the book in exchange for this review. Inside this post is my affiliate links.

I am someone that knows nothing about GOLF although my brother and my nephew his dad’s family would play Golf all the time. Infact my brother used to work on a Golf Couse working on the Golf cart. My daughter always wanted my nephew and his family to teacher he to play Golf.
That never happened and Charlie has finished Homeschool PE or we could have taken classes as a family. Instead I’m going to learn to at least puta Golf ball back and forth to get much needed exercise I need which is why I decided to read Life on the Green: Lessons and Wisdom from Legends of Golf.
Through the book I learned about the Author Ann Liguori and the 12 interviews she conducted of people I’ve heard of growing up. I just wish I was as lucky as the Author was and would have had the opportunity to meet Jack Nicklaus who reminded us to put family first which we should always do.
As I looked through the book if I had the opportunity to interviews Golfers I would have added Arnold Palmer and Tiger Woods. What about you? I could see High School Golf teachers making this book a mandatory read for there students.
About the Book:
