Recommendation
This journey through golf’s evolution from the mysterious and mystical to the mechanistic, with data and technology driving the cart, will evoke strong feelings among those who love the game and ring a chime for people in many other fields challenged by technology. Sportswriter Brett Cyrgalis cautions against emphasizing art over science, or vice versa, because technology and analytics are now an essential aspect of the pro game. Cyrgalis describes golf’s soul by invoking the spirit of Ben Hogan and recounting the games’ most magical moments – still meaningful even in the days of big data.
