HAVING A BLAST
Brooks Koepka is not only the top-ranked golfer in the world, but he’ll also be one of the featured attractions in a spectacular book on the PGA TOUR coming in 2020. Sure, there’s been no shortage of golf books published over the years, but there’s none like this: more than 500 pages of stunning images from the sport’s top photogra- phers (including the project’s lead lensman, Marc Serota, who captured this classic Koepka mo- ment at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March). The images will be displayed in all their glory on 20-by-20-inch pages—with massive gatefolds up to 80 inches wide.
The leather-bound book is licensed by the PGA TOUR and is being produced by Ovation’s parent company, Vault Media Group. “It’s more than a book; it’s a portable museum for the modern world,” says David Meeks, the former managing editor of USA Today Sports, who joined Vault in 2018 as executive producer. “We’re huge golf fans, and taking on this endeavor has been a true labor of love. Our goal is to do what has not been done, to create something as beautiful and timeless as the game itself.”
