  Golf has been around since the time of the Romans, who played a very similar game, but never has it been so popular. More people than ever before now have access to a golf course in Britain following a course-building boom in the 1990s when 700 courses were laid out. The tricky problem of what to buy a golfer as a birthday/Christmas/Father's Day/Mother's Day (around 20 per cent of golfers worldwide and 10 per cent in the UK are women) present keeps golfers' families on their toes. Golf balls suggest the recipient is always losing them, clothes that are worn on the golf course are so hideous that no one can bear to go shopping for them and most other golf-related gifts can be so expensive that they will empty a pocket quicker than a hole in one. For The World's Best Golfer solves the problem. Packed with humorous stories of golfing gaffes, silly snippets from the history of the game, hilarious anecdotes, golfers (men) talking about golfers (women) and vice versa as well as quotes from all manner of celebrity golfers, this is just what's needed to help a novice golfer take heart or a veteran player realize just how good he (or she!) really is.
