“Rich Lerner’s narration is comfortable…The audiobook’s theme is how much of Palmer’s life was shaped by his father, and Lerner is there as if he is accompanying the listener over eighteen holes. Palmer is not a particularly controversial person, and the narration style of his memoir, almost soothing, fits the golfer’s story. There’s not a lot of technical jargon, so even a casual fan can glean a perspective on Palmer’s life.”
