Tiger Woods and the evolution of Golf in America

George Kirsch, author of the recent University of Illinois Press book Golf in America, comments on Tiger Woods and the history of golf in the Wall Street Journal‘s Speakeasy blog.

Like many golf historians in the light of the recent Tiger Woods revelations, he said in an email, he is struggling with the question of whether such material is relevant and ought to be included in the record of golf.

But he is certain that the current incident does belong, and will include it in the revised paperback version of his book.
