A Novel Approach to Ben Hogan

THROUGH THE YEARS, I’D SEEN BESTSELLER golf novels: Dan Jenkins’s Dead Solid Perfect about the pros on the PGA Tour; Steven Pressfield’s The Legend of Bagger Vance, a fictional account of a match involving Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen; but none about the player who dominated my childhood years: Ben Hogan.

John Coyne's affection for Hogan resulted in a popular novel about the golf legend.

There are hundreds of stories about Ben Hogan.
