Advance Praise For The PGA Championship: The Season's Final Major"Dozens of books have been written about the Masters, the U.S. Open, and the British Open, but this is the first comprehensive history of The PGA Championship. I feel privileged to have been part of this history and am grateful to my family and my fans for many years of support. The PGA Championship: The Season's Final Major tells the story of a great Championship-a legacy that will last as long as the game is played." -Jack Nicklaus"The PGA Championship has been one of the most coveted titles in golf since the first playing of the event in 1916. Now it has a book that does justice to the accomplishments of the championships and some of the disappointments of those who didn't win. This ia a worthy account of one of golf's most interesting events." -Thomas Bonk, Los Angeles Times"Having won nine majors, I am extremely proud that two of these came in The PGA Championship. This book recounts the history from the founding in 1916 through today. It is funny, poignant, and, most importantly, celebratory of all that is good in the game." -Gary Player"All you have to say is Tiger at Valhalla, Daly at Crooked Stick, Micheel at Oak Hill and today's golf fans know what you mean because they saw it. The PGA Championship: The Season's Final Major provides a complete panorama of the event where Sarazen, Hagen, Snead, Nelson, Hogan, and Nicklaus reigned supreme. It is a journey through time." &mdas;Jim Nantz, CBS SportsCompaniotte, John is the author of 'PGA Championship The Season's Final Major', published 2004 under ISBN 9781932202083 and ISBN 1932202080.
