About the Author

Susan Comolli Davis, executive editor at Golf for Women magazine, has been writing about sports for nearly 15 years, including editorial stints at Golf & Travel, Body by Jake, and Sports Travel magazines. Through her work at Golf for Women, which includes ghost-writing its instructional article for "name" golfers, she will bring anecdotes from touring professionals Nancy Lopez and Kathy Whitworth and a host of amateurs of all skill levels and experience. A self-described "intermediate" golfer who has attended golf school and taken numerous lessons, she will bring an ideal empathy for the new golfer to her writing.
