**You’ re Still Away** is a deeply honest, often funny, and unexpectedly moving exploration of golf— not as a game to be conquered, but as a lifelong relationship to be endured, misunderstood, and ultimately embraced.
Part memoir, part psychological inquiry, the book follows a mid-handicap golfer and longtime golf journalist who has spent decades studying the best players in the world— while never quite figuring out his own swing. From walking inside the ropes during the dominance of Tiger Woods to grinding through humbling weekend rounds with friends, he occupies a rare middle ground: close enough to greatness to understand it, but far enough away to remain one of us.
What emerges is not a story of transformation or triumph. There is no miracle breakthrough, no late-career plunge to scratch. Instead, **You’ re Still Away** asks a more compelling question: how do you love a game that refuses to love you back?
Through encounters with tour pros, coaches, sports psychologists, and his own endlessly flawed rounds, the author uncovers a different kind of expertise— not in how to master golf, but in how to endure it. Why do we warm up perfectly and play terribly? Why do we repeat the same
