In January of 2008, Bob Smiley decided to follow the game of golf's greatest player for every hole of an entire season from the gallery, resolving to absorb everything that he could. Bob Smiley, who is a television writer and a contributor to ESPN.com, turned to Tiger Woods for help with his career which was at a standstill.
Smiley traveled across the world with Tiger, from the cliffs of San Diego to Dubai, from the Torrey Pines, California U.S. Open, which was arguably one of the best, to the Augusta National. In this book, Smiley chronicles in detail every moment of his journey with Tiger Woods, including some of the most dramatic, and some of the most hysterical moments that he has ever known, including experiences both on the course and off. Follow the Roar truly is a once in a life time adventure, offering the perspective of a true, die hard golf fan as he follows one of the most inspiring and spectacular seasons that Tiger Woods has known in his celebrated golf career.
In addition to the thrill that came with witnessing all 604 of Tiger Woods' career in 2008, Smiley also found inspiration in Tiger Woods. He describes Follow the Roar as a definitive account of Tiger's 2008 season, which was clearly a dominating season despite the fact that a good portion of it was played while he was injured. This book brings to life the entire year of Woods' playing, unraveling the mystery of who he is, and how he makes the game of golf appear so extremely simple despite it being one of the most frustrating sports in the world.
This book is an absolute must have for any golf enthusiast, because it gives a completely unique perspective to the golf game, and how Tiger Woods plays it. This book chronicles Tiger's every move throughout his 2008 golf season, giving the reader a truly unique perspective on the most famous player in golf today. This book is rich in information, not only with a play by play, hole by hole description of events, but also a look at everything else that happened along the way, including a behind the scene look at Tiger's life and coverage of everything that happened along each leg of the tour.
Follow the Roar is actually quite a page turner, following not only the story of Tiger, but also the concept of a traveling memoir in celebration of the golf fandom. This was the ideal golf season for Smiley to have accompanied Tiger Woods on, as it is easily regarded as his best season to date, showing what he truly is capable of as the best golfer in the world. This is a must have for any sports fan, especially a golf enthusiast.
