Laura Davies is considered the longest hitting player of all time, continually holding her own against champions on the men's circuit and commanding respect and admiration wherever she plays. This autobiography, of a world-champion golfer who has never had a formal lesson in her life, gives insights on her life and her views of professional golf and golfers. This is the story of a top golfer whose length and strength are such that she has transcended the frontiers of the woman's game. Laura Davies can keep up with the men, and has demonstrated as much in mixed events around the golfing globe. The first European to win the women's annual money-life in the United States, Laura brings a fresh approach to bear on the tournament trail every week of the year. Where others become increasingly one-dimensional in the world of narrow fairways, the Surrey golfer has a host of outside interests which contribute greatly to the retention of her golfing appetite. Cars, horses and dogs are among her great loves - Laura drives fast and is an almost wholly unrepentant gambler whose theory is that gambling is a perfectly acceptable activity for those who do not get too irked if they lose.
