Over the past 60 years, the Knightsbridge Golf School has improved the swings of thousands of amateurs as well as leading golf pros and celebrities from Sean Connery to Christopher Lee, from Juli Inkster to Telly Savalas, from Anton Du Beke to Ant and Dec.

Through reading about the travails of unusual golfers (from movie stars to Maharajahs), the amateur golfer can learn how to correct the mistakes made by 9 out of 10 golfers. Packed with instructional photography and stunning course shots throughout, The Golf Delusion is a must-have for golfers of any level.

Author Bio
Steve Gould and D.J. Wilkinson have more than seventy years' teaching experience between them. They both joined the school in the 1970s, studying under the legendary teacher Leslie King, a pioneer of golf swing instruction who founded the Knightsbridge Golf School in 1951. In 1989, Mr King handed the school down to them and over the past twenty years they have polished his original teachings into a beautifully simple and effective swing model that can be learnt by anyone, regardless of age or ability.
