Author Description

Colin Montgomerie is one of Britain's greatest sporting heroes, yet also something of a paradox. He is Europe's number one golfer for 8 consecutive years, yet he has never won a world title. Now, for the first time, Colin Montgomerie tells his own remarkable story. He talks candidly about the early days studying for a management degree after his family insisted he finished his education; turning professional in 1986; the highs and lows of his career--and the infamous incident in which he threatened a spectator who coughed during his backswing. The Real Monty is Colin's own inspiring story--the triumph and the anguish, the passionate quest for sporting excellence, and the man behind the headlines.
