More about the book

The story follows Johnny Goodman, an orphan from humble beginnings near the Omaha stockyards, who defies the odds in the elite world of golf. Despite being deemed too small, foreign, and poor, he becomes a self-taught player and ultimately defeats the legendary Bobby Jones in the 1929 U.S. Open. This inspiring tale highlights themes of perseverance, determination, and the struggle against societal barriers in pursuit of one's dreams.
