*SHORTLISTED for the Vikki Orvice Award for Womens Sports Writing at The British Sports Book Awards 2024*The stories here are vital to our understanding of womens sporting history GABBY LOGANFrom the tennis court to the boxing ring, the athletics track to the football pitch, the visibility of women in sport has been gathering pace. Womens competitions are increasingly popular. In Roar Sam takes a deep dive into the experiences of some of sports most high-profile female athletes - some have overcome heartbreaking adversity to reach the top of their game; others have succeeded in the face of prejudice. Like Sam, all have been propelled by sheer grit and determination to succeed. Many now campaign for womens equality and acceptance in sport, knowing the confidence it can bring young girls and the message that they can achieve anything. Featuring a series of candid interviews from some of sports most successful women, Sam lifts the lid on what it takes to reach those heights: from coping with puberty to foregoing teenage fun to pursue a dream; from the punishing physical training schedule to the mental power needed to win or bounce back from defeat; and coping with the pressure of the media spotlight. And, what it feels like in that magical moment when you step up to the podium knowing every sacrifice has been worth it.Roar is a celebration of the bold and fearless - the women empowering future generations to follow in their footsteps - but it is also an inspiring look at how sport can change lives and challenge society.

Winner of the USGA Herbert Warren Wind Book Award Finally a book that truly captures the inspiring and uniquely gifted women from a largely forgotten golfing age. A wonderful read from start to finish Iona Stephen, Sky Sports presenter, commentator and host From the moment women began hosting championships of their own in 1893, one of golfs burning questions became whether any woman would ever approach the mythical ideal of playing perfect golf. It took three decades of striving at a time when Suffragettes were stubbornly fighting for womens rights before Joyce Wethered and Glenna Collett delivered an unequivocal answer to that question. From their first meeting at Troon in 1925, through a decade highlighted by their breathtaking match at St Andrews, the Englishwoman and the American brought out in one another golf so sublime that rare was the player, man or woman, who could perform as brilliantly. The rivalry between Wethered and Collett generated such widespread interest and respect that it paved the way for the birth of a womens professional tour. Matchless tells the story of these two incomparable golfers women who personified the ambitions of their age.

Shortlisted for the Sports Book Awards for Best Sports Writing of the Year and the USGA Herbert Warren Wind Book Award The Long Golden Afternoon tells the story of the transformative generation of golf that followed the rise of Young Tom Morris - an era of sweeping change that saw Scotlands national pastime become one of the rare games played around the world. It begins with the first epochal performance after Tommy - John Balls victory at Prestwick in 1890 as the first Englishman and the first amateur to win the Open Championship - and continues through the outbreak of the Great War. If Tommy ignited the flame of golf in England, Balls breakthrough turned that smoldering fire into a conflagration. The generation that followed would witness the games coming of age. It would see an explosion in golfs popularity, the invention of revolutionary new balls and clubs, the emergence of professional tours, the organization of the game and its rules, a renaissance in writing and thinking about golf, and the decision that the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews must always remain the sports guiding light. A beautifully crafted examination of a period in the history of golf that will never again be witnessed. It is not to be missed - Jim Davis, The Golf

Shortlisted for The Telegraph Sports Book Awards Biography of the Year A splendid new biography. How good was young Tom Morris? Stephen Proctor makes his case cogently. Young Tom Morris was one of the greatest of them all - Allan Massie Young Tom Morris, the son of the legendary pioneer of golf, Tom Morris, was golfs first superstar. Born at a pivotal moment in history, just as the new and inexpensive gutty ball was making golf affordable and drawing thousands of new players to the game, his genius and his swashbuckling personality would set a game that had been frozen in amber for four centuries on the pathway to becoming worldwide spectator sport we know today. Exhaustively researched and beautifully illustrated, Monarch of the Green is a stirring and evocative history of Tommys life (which also includes, for the first time, a compilation of his competitive record in stroke-play tournaments, singles matches, and foursomes) and demonstrates how, in one dazzling decade, this young superstar dominated the sport like few others have ever done.

Este livro nasceu de anotaçes de pensamentos que surgiam quando o autor escrevia mais precisamente - o livro 10 Regras para um Vencedor."Eles ficavam em minha cabeça e no me abandonavam. Resolvi anota-los em um bloco de papel. A principio parecia uma situaço estranha, escrevendo num computador e anotando num bloco. Foi a forma encontrada de retira-los da minha cabeça. Prossegui anotando ate o termino do livro 10 Regras para um Vencedor. Quando acabei de escrever o livro o bloco estava no fim. Eram pensamentos interessantes como: "Ficamos, ao fim do dia, com o agradecimento entre os dedos da felicidade". "Cada dia estou me aperfeiçoando. O tempo oferece uma variedade de bons cursos. Promove uma pessoa fraca em um guerreiro". "O impossivel se torna possivel, quando acreditamos que temos força". Para dar vida idealizei o livro com ilustraçes fazendo menço aos pensamentos. O corpo do livro ganhou alma com as imagens, traduzindo as emoçes das frases. As mensagens motivacionais trouxeram um colorido as paginas, tornando-se interessante a leitura. O nome do livro no poderia ser outro: Bloco de Anotaçes: Pensamento Agora. Foram emoçes sentidas naquele instante e colocada-as no papel. Tudo muito autentico, casual, sem reflexes, apenas sentimentos ditados pela alma de quem escreve."

10 Regras para um vencedor é um livro para ler e reler sempre, para nos lembrar a todo instante do quanto somos capazes de chegar aonde quisermos e como quisermos.
