Level Par
Jake Steadman was once a prodigy with a golden golf swing, destined for greatness, but years of addiction, broken dreams, and a fractured relationship with his father sent him spiraling into despair. Now, at thirty-six, he stands on the eighteenth tee at Crestview Country Club, one shot away from a chance at the U.S. Open-and redemption. With his loyal friend Jonesy by his side, Jake battles the demons of his past and the pressure of the moment.
Level Par is a gripping tale of resilience, friendship, and the courage to face life’s toughest lies, both on and off the course.
Will Jake find the strength to make the shot of his life, or will the weight of his past pull him under?
