Burke and Demaret: The Wit and Wisdom of Golf's Most Colorful Duo
Burke and Demaret: The Wit and Wisdom of Golf’s Most Colorful Duo is a collection of stories that pays tribute to two of the most incredibly talented golfers and gifted visionaries that the city of Houston ever produced. It also pays homage to some of the characters who walked through the doors of Champions Golf Club during its most formative years. Jackie Burke and Jimmy Demaret not only created a golf club that stands today as a beacon to the community and the city as a whole but also did it with the kind of flair and flamboyance that made them famous to an entire nation of golfers. From celebrities like Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, James Garner, and Phil Harris to some of the greats of every sport including Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra, Willie Mays, Roger Maris, Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods . . . all left their footprints in Champions’ rich history. Some of these stories have become legendary, especially amongst the surviving members of the club, but many have never been told before this writing. They should be remembered forever.
