An American Caddie in St. Andrews

Growing Up, Girls and Looping on the Old Course
A funny and touching coming-of-age memoir set on the fabled Old Course of St Andrews.

Longlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year 2014

After finishing high school in New York, Oliver Horovitz was accepted to Harvard University. But there was a problem; he couldn't start until the following year. With time on his hands and a long-standing love of golf, the solution was obvious: a gap year at the University of St. Andrews, alongside the iconic Old Course, known around the world as 'the home of golf'.

At the end of term, Ollie joined the St. Andrews caddie trainee programme and spent the summer lining up at the caddie shack, looping two, sometimes three, rounds a day, with the notoriously gruff veteran caddies. And so began an adventure that would change his life in unexpected ways.
