John Garrity's photos from his trip to retrace his roots in Ireland
(1 of 21)
Sports Illustrated special contributor John Garrity, author of Tiger 2.0, took an Irish sabbatical in the summer/fall of 2007. His stated purpose: to determine if a "golf gene" explained his family's centuries-long association with golf. His real agenda: to reflect on a life spent chronicling the game's greats, from Hogan and Palmer to Mickelson and Woods. Here, with the author's wry commentary, is an Ancestral Links slide show.
