Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the thirst for more information about women's golf, very little exists about its history outside of books about the legendary Babe Didrikson Zaharias. Hudson fills this void, offering a complete history of women in golf. He focuses on the fascinating development of women's golf, the creation of the women's tour, star athletes of the past, the astronomical rise of the present-day tour greats, and the future of the sport. Golf may well have replaced baseball as America's pastime, and the sport enjoys incredible popularity across the globe. At the professional level, women's golf continues to escalate in popularity and media attention, particularly with the dominance of LPGA champion Annika Sorenstam and the interest surrounding teenage phenom Michelle Wie. Despite the thirst for more information about women's golf, very little exists about its history outside of books about the legendary Babe Didrikson Zaharias. Hudson's new book fills this void, focusing on the fascinating development of women's golf, the creation of the women's tour, star athletes of the past, and the astronomical rise of the present-day tour greats. In addition, Hudson examines women's golf in the context of the country's history of discrimination against women. Women's golf grew in popularity after the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920, granting the right of suffrage. Unfortunately, gender discrimination remains a reality in the world of golf in certain locales of country club golf. Nonetheless, women's golf has never been more popular. For example, the Futures Tour, where girls and young women hone their skills on the way to the LPGA, has grown to more than 300 players from 27 countries, making it the largest international developmental tour in the world. And the 2006 LPGA Tour featured 34 events with prize money nearing $50 million, the highest ever in LPGA history. In 1890, Hudson writes, the Washington Post reported that some girls are anxious to learn golf, because they are really fond of sport and exercise; others, because it gives them a chance to show off a natty suit. Those girls are now acknowledged as women—and this book shows how very far they, and their sport, have come.

Book excerpt: Starting with Lady Margaret Scott, who was to win the first three of the Ladies' Golf Union's British Women's Championships, this book introduces the great figures of the women's game - characters such as Joyce Wethered, who won five successive English championships, and her opposite number in America, Glenna Collett Vare. These two were possibly the best women golfers of all time, but fate decreed that their careers should coincide - a circumstance which led to the famous British Women's final of 1929. Babe Zaharias, who won two gold medals in the 1932 Olympics before turning to golf, is another who has her niche in the sport's history, and in the pages of this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African American Woman Golfer: Her Legacy gives a brief historical overview of African American women in golf and examines the sport to uncover all African American women who have been involved in golf over the past 75 years. M. Mikell Johnson shows how these women-who were seemingly far removed from the white, male, privileged world of the country club-broke both color and gender barriers to become golfers. This book traces the history of how African American women got involved in golf. Title VI and Title IX alleviated some of the racial and financial burdens for some young women in high school and college athletics, allowing them to participate in all sports regardless of race, creed, or gender. Women's clubs also provided a stable foundation for female athletes in male-dominated sports. The misinformation, social apathy, financial encumbrances, and, finally, the role of the media in both promoting and preventing black women's opportunities in golf are discussed. The African American Woman Golfer: Her Legacy identifies over 300 women and their lives in golf. The author also profiles prominent golfers such as Althea Gibson, who crossed the LPGA color line; Helen Webb Harris, who created the first club for black women golfers; and Ann Gregory, who broke the USGA whites only clause in women's golf.

Book excerpt: "Throughout my career, there have been other 'basics' I have constantly returned to, the basics of the golf swing. Whenever I miss-hit a shot or notice a swing problem, I return to these basics of swing, stance, grip, and alignment. Too many of us complicate our golf swings with involved theories when good golf actually is based on a few simple principles. In "A Woman's Golf Game," some of the fellow players I most respect will relate these simple and basic theories to you. I think they will help you play better golf."-- from the Foreword by Kathy Whitworth Nancy Lopez, Amy Alcott, Beth Daniel, Sally Little, Hollis Stacy, Sandra Palmer, Judy Rankin--never before have so many top women golfers shared their secrets to playing superior golf. Fully illustrated, "A Woman's Guide to Golf" details the entire technique of the game from tee to green. It takes the beginner through the early stages of learning and on to the game's finer points, club by club. The instruction rests on the foundation of sound swing technique and also covers grip, stance, rhythm and tempo, chipping, pitching, putting, sand shots, and awkward lies. Special chapters on the left-handed golfer, equipment especially designed for women golfers, and golf rules and etiquette make this book the most up-to-date, comprehensive manual for women golfers available. How to choose the right club, how to get the most from practice, and how to add distance to your shots are just some of the areas addressed in "A Woman's Golf Game." For those who are just taking up the sport or who are interested in refining parts of the game, or who as low handicappers need the pros' analytical advice on sharpening specific skills--this invaluablebook has helpful information for every kind of woman golfer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outsiders in the Clubhouse captures the experience of living on the women's professional golf tour. Based on interviews, field work, and archival data, it reveals a double edge to women's status as outsiders within the world of golf. On the tour, gender is less relevant than in the everyday lives of most women. LPGA members do not compete directly with men, they are not held back by glass ceilings, and their raises are based on merit. But at the same time the tour operates within a sexist world. Despite all their skill, women golfers remain outsiders within the hypermasculine world of golf. This book explores the players' lives as they attempt to balance the often conflicting demands of their sport and the conventional social expectations of womanhood. The analysis builds from the players' negotiation of interactions with fans and press and between each other to a broader analysis of the political symbolism and agency of women athletes within contemporary society.
