Bethpage State Park is owned by the state of New York, and no membership is required to play there. This is golf at its most populist, most pure - and most challenging. In what Tiger Woods himself would declare the most difficult national championship, Sergio Garcia, Phil Mickelson, Nick Faldo and the rest would, through days of rain and roughs, learn the hard way that while Bethpage may be open to the public, even for the pros the chance of winning can be closed off to mere mortals. par; this was golf at its most intense. With backstage access, John Feinstein removes the mystery shrouding golf's most famous event, unravelling how pairings are made; qualifiers; setting up the golf course; and all the complexities of bringing golf's most exclusive competition to a truly public setting. Feinstein takes readers through every step, every thorny hole, every bitter rivalry of one of golf's greatest tournaments.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Little, Brown","offers":[{"title":"Open: Inside the Ropes at Bethpage Black | John Feinstein | Hardcover | 9780316170031 | Used: Very Good | Sports Writing 1754126","offer_id":50902543008002,"sku":"1754126","price":26.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/81a1muRK-1L.jpg?v=1793203735","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/open-inside-the-ropes-at-bethpage-black","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
