Daily Mail: Ian Poulter's Book Light On Candidness

Derek Lawrenson is one of the first to get a copy of Ian Poulter's autobiography. The Daily Mail writer calls the book a "good stocking filler" and notes that "there’s a certain irony in the fact that a man who has only read one book in his life should have the cheek to come out with one of his own."

Lawrenson says "Poulter’s story is so inspirational it certainly deserves to be preserved in hardcover" but in another bit of irony, says few candid stories or views he shares off the record with scribes are offered "presumably because he can’t afford to fall out with people when he’s in the prime of his career, and a stint as Ryder Cup captain lies on the distant horizon."

Nick Faldo, however, was one of the few not spared.
