William Hill Sports Book Club - LIV and Let Die

In the latest edition of the Sports Book Club we take a look at LIV AND LET DIE - The inside story of the war between the PGA tour and LIV Golf. Author Alan Shipnuck joins Adrian Durham and William Hills Neil Foggin. 


In LIV and Let Die, Shipnuck delivers the inside story in real time, with fly-on-the-wall reporting from the yachts where LIV was hatched and within the corridors of power as the PGA Tour flailed to fend off the threat. Shipnuck has travelled seamlessly between both tours – having countless conversations with players, caddies, CEOs, agents, financiers, lawyers, flaks, fans, and Instagramming wives – to deliver a no-holds-barred account of the most chaotic moment in golf history
