About the Book
George Sargent unexpectedly won the US Open Golf Championship in 1909. He was an expert golfer, teacher, inventor and innovator, pioneering the use of motion pictures to analyse and improve the golf swing. Heather Tweed, his 2nd great niece, explores his life and for the first time pieces together the threads of his pioneering techniques in an article published in book form for the first time in 2019.
