Alan Shipnuck Rory

Produktbeskrivelse

The New York Times bestseller The #1 Irish Times bestseller The definitive biography of Rory McIlroy, the most important, popular and confounding player of the post-Tiger era. Rory McIlroy contains multitudes. The child of a working-class family from a small town in a war-torn homeland now commutes to work in his own private jet and counts billionaires as confidants. He can overwhelm a golf course with his transcendent talent and then, at the next tournament, look utterly lost. In the same press conference, he can be golf’s most eloquent ambassador and a trash-talking troll. McIlroy’s victory at the 2025 Masters Tournament packed such an emotional punch because he is golf’s most vulnerable superstar. Across two decades as a pro he has been the anti-Tiger, letting fans into his heart and into his world. When McIlroy collapsed onto the final green at Augusta National, having finally completed the career Grand Slam, golf fans cried along with him because so many saw themselves in his struggles. Known as the most fearless writer on the golf beat for over thirty years, Alan Shipnuck traces McIlroy’s evolution from a young Northern Irish phenom to a game-changing force. Rory brings to life the heartbreaks, triumphs, tabloid romance, business disputes, and divisive politicking to fully define one of golf’s all-time great players. Alan Shipnuck, New York Times and Irish Times bestseller, April 2026...
