About Rory, about the Masters, about whatever it was that happened at Augusta National last year (some days, I’m still not totally sure).
It is now live for pre-order and will ship later this spring.
You can pre-order it right here.
The first 100 book orders will be signed by me with a special illustrated insert from Jason. Our Normal Club members will receive this perk, as well as a digital version of the book, for free.
If you’ve ever considered becoming a member, today is a good time to do it!
I — like Jason — have read, re-read, edited, footnoted and labored over every sentence of what is our fourth book together.
What I walked away thinking was the same thing Jason walked away thinking.
I am confident that if you like what we make in this newsletter or on Twitter or even if you just like Rory or the Masters or professional golf, you are going to enjoy it a lot.
I am confident that even if it was just a book of illustrations that it would be beautiful and tell a great once-in-a-generation story. I am confident that it will delight you. I am confident that if you purchase it for someone else, it will delight them.
Jason and I like making shows and enjoy collaborating on the newsletter with one another. Truly. But we love building artifacts like this book.
It is the manifestation of our work together, of trying to figure out the golf world and Rory and the Masters and all of it alongside you.
Every sale means something to us.
Every book we print has not just physical weight but emotional force as well.
If you want to support Normal Sport but can’t (or don’t want to) become a Normal Club member, this is a great way to do it.
As always, we create for ourselves, but we publish for you.
And we hope you love it.
-Kyle and Jason (and a special shoutout to Greig Anderson for his design work!)
There’s been no one else in golf that has tickled my funny bone as often as Kyle Porter does. He’s been instrumental in ushering in a new era of golf coverage and it’s been a pleasure to be along for the ride in that.
Normal Sport is exploratory, sometimes emotional, always entertaining. It also has one of my favorite writers in the biz at its foundation.
Kyle approaches coverage of the game with both conviction and curiosity
The way Kyle has been able to mold a silly Twitter joke (normal sport) into a must-read newsletter on the weekly happenings in our silly game gives a great look into why he's one of the smartest people in golf.
Few make the sport feel as fun and as thought provoking.
I’ve always enjoyed your love for golf. So often I see favoritism showed to golfers in the social media world, but I enjoy reading you telling a situation how it is regardless of the person.
Kyle sees golf in a way that no one else does—and we're all fortunate to get to share in that view through Normal Sport!
It's a treasure trove of the important, the seemingly important, and — importantly! — the unimportant stuff. It's an asset in my inbox.
Kyle's content is a product of a sick sense of humour, a clear passion for golf and unquestionable dedication to hard work. That's not normal!
Kyle is one of the best in the golf world at finding and synthesizing the absurd, the thoughtful and the fun things that make being a golf fan worthwhile.
Kyle is a perfect curator of the necessary moments of levity that accent a sport that will drive most of us insane.
Kyle is the best columnist in sports. That he has channeled those talents through strokes gained and Spieth memes is a blessing to golf.
