Payne Stewart was always the golfer that I most liked to watch-the flamboyant outfits, the bad boy turned good story...and the wonderful sportsmanship that he showed in that infamous Ryder Cup. I followed the news that day that he died, waiting for the plane to finally crash, and it was so damn sad. This was a good book as it didn't gloss over the bad boy days. It was a good honest biography that showed all sides of the man and how he decided to change his life. Good read.

It's wonderful to read about a professional sports figure who actually had his head on straight and his eyes on God.
