About the book

"In Driven, award-winning journalist Kevin Cook turns to golf's best teenagers, their instructors, and their parents - all betting that the next Tiger is just a 300-yard drive away. Along the way, he shows how the game has evolved from a sport of paunchy men to one populated with muscular youngsters blasting tape-measure drives. Cook's subjects include the famed golf guru David Leadbetter; teen superstar Michelle Wie and her pushy parents; Ty Tryon, the youngest player ever to win a PGA Tour card (now a burnout at the age of twenty-three); Mu Hu, the Chinese teen expected by his government to become the Yao Ming of golf; Peter Uihlein, the wealthy son of Titleist's CEO; the golfing daughters of tennis superstar Ivan Lendl; and a Virginia preacher's son who plays with mismatched eBay clubs."--Jacket.
