Description: |
The follow-up to "Into the Bear Pit", this title deals with all aspects of the aftermath of the 1999 Ryder Cup at Brookline and the publication of James' first book. Also included is the war of words with Nick Faldo, the re-scheduled Ryder Cup at The Belfry, and Mark's long fight against cancer. |
Synopsis: |
After the Bear Pit is the follow-up to Into the Bear Pit, Mark James's headline-grabbing Ryder Cup expose that rocked the world of golf in the summer of 2000 and spent ten weeks in the Sunday Times bestseller list. James pulls no punches in discussing the substantial fall-out that resulted from the publication of Into the Bear Pit. His spat with Nick Faldo led to Faldo waging a campaign to have his European Tour collegue removed from the Tournament Committee and ended in Jame's eventual resignation as Sam Torrance's Ryder Cup assistant. After the Bear Pit also chronicles the former Ryder Cup Captain's greatest battle - a long, hard six-month struggle against testicular cancer. James takes an abosorbing and occasionally humerous look at the illness that threatened to end more than just his golfing career. Mark James is one of the most popular figures of the professional golf circuit and in After the Bear Pit he gets to grips with many of the sport's big issues in his own inimatable fashion - tough, straight and honest. |
