Since then he has fulfilled his early promise and gone on to win many major tournaments, and has the capacity to excite the imagination in a way that few other players have ever matched.;This biography traces his life from childhood to the present. The author talked to people who have influenced Ballesteros, players who have competed against him, and relatives and friends.;Lauren St John is the author of "Shooting at Clouds: Inside the PGA European Tour".
