The Golf Book. The book's dedication, "To my daughter Leonora without whose never-failing sympathy and encouragement this book would have been finished in half the time", is a recycling of the dedication to A Gentleman of Leisure (1910), which read "To Herbert Westbrook, without whose never-failing advice, help, and encouragement this book would have been finished in half the time". The book includes a preface, which is signed "P. G. Wodehouse, The Sixth Bunker, Addington". Adaptations Three of the stories were adapted as short films for the 1924 series The Clicking of Cuthbert. These three stories were "Chester Forgets Himself", "The Magic Plus Fours", and "Rodney Fails to Qualify". An episode of the television series Wodehouse Playhouse was adapted from "Rodney Fails to Qualify". The episode, also titled "Rodney Fails to Qualify", first aired in 1975. Some of the stories were adapted for BBC Radio 4 as part of a series titled The Oldest Member (1994–1999). The radio series included "The Heart of a Goof", "Chester Forgets Himself", "The Magic Plus Fours", "The Awakening of Rollo Podmarsh", "Rodney Fails to Qualify", and "Jane Goes Off the Fairway". The comedic play Love on the Links (2018) was adapted from Wodehouse's golf stories.
