"Divots" by P. G. Wodehouse is a collection of short stories first published in the United States in 1927. Originally titled "The Heart of a Goof" in Britain, these nine tales revolve around golf and are narrated by the Oldest Member, a recurring character who observes the comic misadventures of various golfers. From lovelorn players seeking confidence on the greens to wealthy rivals wagering absurd stakes, Wodehouse transforms the genteel world of
golf into a stage for romantic schemes, social comedy, and human folly. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
