Synopsis

The triumphant story of beloved golfer Phil Mickelson and the years of grit and tireless work that lead to his success, packed with personal insights and never-before-seen photos.

Every year, he came so close only to fall short. Every year, the dream grew larger, only to fade away. Yet every year, his gallery of fans grew in support of his quest. Then, on April 11, 2004, for the most beloved golfer of the decade, everything changed. It is a moment ingrained in the hearts and minds of millions, a moment of epic triumph and destiny fulfilled that will be remembered for the ages. But for Phil Mickelson, winning the 2004 Masters was merely another step in an odyssey that began many years ago. Born into a sporting family, with a putter drawn on his birth announcement, Phil knew early on that golf would always be his passion. His parents embraced and nurtured that dream, but they taught him that winning isn't everything.

In One Magical Sunday, Phil Mickelson takes us on a magical journey inside a life few have seen up close, but a life whose lessons can be cherished forever. As we travel hole-by-hole through that triumphant Sunday at the Masters, Phil looks back at the influences that made him the man he is today: his mom and dad, who mentored him on the balance between family and golf; his wife, Amy, who has given him so much happiness and fulfillment; and their three children, who remain their top priority. With personal insights from Phil's family and never-before-seen photos of his most treasured moments, One Magical Sunday is a book not only for Phil's millions of fans, but for everyone who finds inspiration in reading about a champion on and off the course.

I want to start by saying I am a big fan of Phil Mickelson, but I've actually had this book for about 12 years without actually reading it. I now consider that a huge mistake because it was so much better than I expected it to be. You don't have to be a fan of Phil or really even golf to enjoy this......more

Goodreads review by Dutchfarmeress on April 15, 2017

What an enjoyable book! Mickelson writes about his first win of the Masters. Each hole is a chapter and in it is woven the story of his life. Nicely done. At the same time you learn something about course management, mind set and moral.......more

Goodreads review by Chace on July 18, 2023

A great story about family and triumph. Although he won plenty on the tour, Phil was always chasing the big one. This book charted how he got there and how the people along the way were his driving success. 18 chapters covered 18 holes of the Masters tournament, recounting each one and adding someth......more

Goodreads review by Jd on September 30, 2010

I thought this was an excellent book. It talks about Phil's lifestory and how everyone always said that he will be destined to be a professional golfer and win the Master's. At the beginning and end of each chapter it talks about how Phil played the hole that he was on. I extremly recommend this boo......more

Goodreads review by John on March 22, 2016

This is a combination autobiography and testimony about the day Phil Mickelson won the Master's. Though it is good, the author's and his family's "spiritualism" will make the reader cringe in more than one spot.......more
