John Sabino is a world-renowned golf blogger and the author of two previous golf books. He is among a small group of golfers who have played the top one hundred ranked golf courses in the world, culminating with Augusta National. John chronicled his journey around the world to complete his quest in a blog that has over 2 million readers. He has written for Links Magazine and Golf Digest and has been featured in Australian Golf Digest, The Star Ledger, Links Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Golf Digest Index, Luxury Travel Magazine, Il Mondo del Golf Today (Italian Golf Digest), Perfect Eagle Golf Magazine and Billionaire Magazine.
John is a retired financial services executive and spent more than thirty-five years working for various firms in New York City. He splits his time between the golf-rich state of New Jersey—home to the number one ranked golf course in the world and the USGA—and Bluffton, South Carolina, a two-and-a-half-hour drive from Augusta National via the Augusta Highway.
John is a cancer survivor and is seven years out from his bone marrow transplant to treat leukemia. He survived through the grace of God, the loving support of his family and friends, and the amazing team that treats him at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
