With careers that often span decades -- and with most tournaments determined after four 18-hole rounds -- golfers have a lot to consider when choosing a single, stand-out round as the one they'll never forget. Even so, there is always one that leaps to mind for these legends of the links.
From famous firsts to courageous comebacks, golf's best interviewer, Matt Adams, compiles over 50 incredible rounds from some of golf's best and brightest stars. In The Golf Round I'll Never Forget, readers will march the final round at Cherry Hills with Arnold Palmer for his remarkable 1960 U.S. Open comeback wing. Similarly, they will revel in the 46-year-old Jack Nicklaus' come-from-behind victory at the 1986 Masters. And, of course, most will vividly recall the Tiger Slam -- the unforgettable rounds by Tiger Woods that encompassed the never-before-achieved feat of winning all four majors in succession. This updated and expanded second edition also features the following great rounds: . Billy Casper at the 1966 U.S. Open . Sergio Garcia at the 2017 Masters . Brooks Koepka at the 2018 U.S. Open . Gary Player at the 1978 Masters . Gene Sarazen at the 1935 Masters . Craig Stadler at the 1982 Masters . Jordan Spieth at the 2017 Open . Tom Watson at the 1977 Open . Jon Rahm at the 2023 Masters .
