Afternoons With Mr. Hogan

"""In the 1960’s, though Hogan’s competitive career was over, he kept the practice habits that made him famous and remade modern competitive golf. He hired fifteen-year-old Jody Vasquez to help. Each day, after driving to a remote part of the course at the Shady Oaks Country Club, Hogan would spend hours hitting balls, and Vasquez would retrieve them. There, and over the course of their twenty-year friendship, Hogan taught Jody the mechanics of his famous swing and shared his thoughts on playing, practicing, and course management – unknowingly revealing much about his character, values and beliefs, and the events that shaped them."""
