À propos de cet audio

 From Tom Coyne, the New York Times bestselling author of A Course Called America, comes a powerful new story five years in the making about a century-old golf course, the heart of a small town, and one man’s journey to bring them both back to life.

Tom Coyne has made a career out of travelling the world and playing golf with a trilogy of bestselling books titled A Course Called Scotland, A Course Called Ireland, and A Course Called America. But after checking every iconic destination off his list, Coyne decided to see what he could find in his own backyard. When he stumbled across the dilapidated Sullivan County Golf Club in New York’s Catskills, he wasn’t looking to buy a golf course—he was just chasing a feeling. But in an unexpected twist, he became the owner of a historic course on the brink of ruin, and with it, the keeper of its past, present, and future.

A Course Called Home is Coyne’s most personal and profound book yet—a heartfelt and often humorous chronicle of restoration, resilience, and finding purpose in unexpected places. It’s a story about digging in—literally and figuratively—as Coyne trades tee times for tractor hours, learning to mow fairways, rake bunkers, and revive a course rich in history but fading from memory.

The community that Coyne has found and cultivated is unlike the pristine, manicured version of the game you see on TV, played by millionaires in matching polos. The course is run by a tight-knit crew of groundskeepers who work long hours, not for prestige, but for pride. It’s played by regulars and first-timers alike who pay in cash and play in jeans, and is a place where visitors quickly become part of the fold.

In the tradition of his beloved golf travel trilogy, Coyne again taps into what makes the game timeless and transformative. But this round, he doesn’t have to travel far: just down the road from Woodstock, to a scrappy, 9-holer where golf once brought generations together. A Course Called Home delivers the perfect next chapter: a love letter to golf, community, and the places that still matter.
