New Yorker Opens Archives, Golf Related Beach Reads Free!
/You never know when the New Yorker might change its archiving policy, but for now everything back to 2007 from the magazine is available online for your reading pleasure
Luke Kerr-Dineen finds some great reads worth opening and pulling up for some summer reading, including David Owen's excellent piece on Askernish.
Three I would endorse, as linked by Kerr-Dineen:
The Ghost Course, By David Owen
Owen, a Golf Digest Contributing Editor, describes the far-flung scene he finds at Askernish Golf Club in South Uist, Scotland.
Rip Van Golfer, By John McPhee
This one might be considered slightly too long for some tastes, but McPhee travels to Oakmont for the week
The Yips, By David Owen
Owen takes a coldly analytical look at the thing that golfers everywhere dreads the most: The yips.
