<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Q School--the PGA Tour Qualifying Tournament--is the winding road that aspiring professionals must negotiate if they are to qualify to play on the PGA Tour. Feinstein recounts some of the highlights--and lowlights--surrounding the 2005 tournament.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the author of <i>Raise a Fist, Take a Knee</i> and <i>A Good Walk Spoiled, </i>this "must-read" national bestseller takes you inside the dramatic world of the highest-pressure golf tournament in the world (<i>Tampa Tribune</i>). </b> <p/>It is the tournament that separates champions from mortals. It is the starting point for the careers of future legends and can be the final stop on the down escalator for fading stars. The annual PGA Tour Qualifying Tournament is one of the most grueling competitions in any sport. Every fall, veterans and talented hopefuls sweat through six rounds of hell at Q school, as the tournament is universally known, to get a shot at the PGA Tour, vying for the 30 slots available. <p/>The grim reality: If you don't make it through Q school, you're not on the PGA tour. You're out. And those who make it to the six-day finals are the lucky ones: hundreds more players fail to get through the equally grueling first two stages of the event. John Feinstein tells the story of the players who compete for these coveted positions in the 2005 Q school as only he can. With arresting accounts from the players, established winners, rising stars, the defeated, and the endlessly hopeful, America's favorite sportswriter unearths the inside story behind the PGA Tour's brutal all-or-nothing competition.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>John Feinstein</b> is the author of many widely acclaimed and bestselling books on sports, including <i>One on One</i>, <i>Moment of Glory</i>, <i>Are You Kidding Me?</i>, <i>Living on the Black</i>, <i>Tales from Q School</i>, <i>Last Dance</i>, <i>Next Man Up</i>, <i>Let Me Tell You a Story</i> (with Red Auerbach), <i>Caddy for Life</i>, <i>Open</i>, <i>The Punch</i>, <i>The Last Amateurs</i>, <i>The Majors</i>, <i>A Good Walk Spoiled<i>, <i>A Civil War</i>, <i>A Season on the Brink</i>, <i>Play Ball</i>, and <i>Hard Courts</i>.
