Mike Guillen
Originally an aspiring professional golfer, Mike Guillen, The Golf Author, turned to writing as a creative outlet after a knee injury sidelined his career. His first book, Professional Golf for the Rest of Us, provides a brief look into what it takes to play the game at a professional level.
