From Publishers Weekly In Jenkins's outrageous sports satire (after Slim and None ), middle-aged sportswriter Jack Brannon is sick of writing about Tiger Woods and the boring testosterone-charged PGA tour. So the swaggering Texan decides to check out the ladies of the LPGA, specifically hot teen sensation and fellow Texan, Ginger Clayton. She's a fiery eighteen-year-old blonde with the potential to become the next golf superstar (or, in pro golf parlance, a real franchise babe).
