According to the book, Tommy was also known for his passionate love for his wife, and had died of a broken heart. Touched by this passage, Anne did further research into Tommy’s life. She was moved by the stories of his powerful spirit, and the message his life had seemed to convey. In an effort to heal her grief, she began to write her own version of Tommy’s story. Slowly, Tommy came to life, and his message became clear: reach deeply into your heart to tap the reservoir of love that exists within each of us — and let that love guide your life. In this way, Tommy had set unprecedented records in golf, and impressed even the old-timers with his expression of love for his young wife.

As she wrote, Anne’s own life became transformed by the power of Tommy’s message. Her long-strained relationship with her father was healed, and she was reunited with other family members. She dedicated The Legend of Tommy Morris to her brother, Jeffrey. A writer and golf-enthusiast, Anne Kinsman Fisher lives in San Francisco, California. When she is not writing, Anne can often be found walking the golf course or caddying for her father.
