A young golfer weighs fun against competition

Ezra Everett turns to golf hoping to leave the intensity of team sports behind, but the game brings its own competitive pressures. He enjoys driving the ball, struggles on the green, and faces a new challenge when his friend Zach enters him in a tournament without asking. The central question is whether Ezra can find a way to enjoy golf under pressure or decide that the game is no longer for him. The story connects the practical ups and downs of learning a sport with questions about competition, friendship, and what makes playing worthwhile.

Book overview

Ezra Everett is tired of how competitive team sports have become--he just wants to have fun. When he tries golf, he loves driving the ball but struggles on the green ... and realizes golfers can be competitive too. Things get worse when his new friend Zach signs him up for a tournament without asking. Now Ezra must decide: Can he block out the pressure to compete and enjoy the game, or will he have to give up golf altogether?
