About this audiobook
In The Feeling of Greatness, second edition, golf coach Tim O'Connor updates his previous biography of the late great, Canadian golfer Moe Norman, who was famous for introducing the single plane golf swing. This edition includes new anecdotes about Moe both on and off the course by golfers, journalists, friends and family, and offers a more in-depth portrait of the man and golfer, especially in the last years of his life. O'Connor shares with readers his personal and professional friendships with Moe along the way. Some twenty years later, from a distanced perspective, O'Connor sets the record straight about Norman, promotes his legacy as the legendary golfer he was, and reflects on life lessons learned from their association over the years.
