BOOK SYNOPSIS

In this open and entertaining autobiography, Peter Allis tells the story of a lifetime spent living and breathing golf, first as a top professional player - he played on eight Ryder Cup teams - and then as a widely knowledgeable commentator with an instantly recognisable style.

Not only a celebration of these achievements, My Life is also a fascinating account of a media career spent in the company of major stars from the world of golf and beyond. After retiring from the professional game in 1974, Peter went on to become televisions foremost commentator on the sport, informing and entertaining huge TV audiences via the BBC and ABC in the states for 30 years. A natural storyteller, here he shares his memories of golf and grates past and present - from Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus, to Tiger Woods and British heroes Colin Montgomerie and Darren Clarke - and writes of a life in television jousting with personalities such as Sean Connery and Jackie Stewart.

His personal life has been a mixture of happiness, with a large, close family, and deep sadness caused by the loss of his young daughter, Victoria. Here he talks candidly and movingly about that time, reflecting on the trials and tribulations of life away from the golf course.

Recently voted by readers of Golf Digest the best golf commentator ever Peter Allis's unique style has endeared him to millions of people around the world for whom he is simply 'The Voice of Golf'.
