Golf As We Know It with All Access Golf

Grueter Golf Presents: Low Expectations

Jen and Kiki are joined by Kelley Pierre, Lenny Brown, and Winston Gordon of NYC-based All Access Golf, an organization dedicated to increasing the accessibility, relatability, and visibility of minorities in the sport of golf. They fulfill their mission with a range of programming for both children and adults, including parties, events, school curriculum, individual lessons, content, and activism.
Kelley is also the Director of Circulation and Consumer Engagement at African American Golfer's Digest, where he recently penned an article called "PGA, Now is the time..." The piece included an interview with Wendell Haskins, the former director of Diversity and Multicultural Initiatives at PGA of America, and discussed the insurrection on the U.S. Capitol and the ways in which it related to the golf world. We talk about the points raised in the article, as well as:

• Kelley, Lenny, and Winston's golf journeys and how they were "firsties"
• All Access Golf and why kids have to see themselves represented in the sport to know it's an option
• The significance of Papwa Sewgolum to the history of golf
• HBO's "Tiger" documentary, how it failed to surprise us, and a range of Earl Woods takes

P.S. If somebody asks you what your score was, just tell them to mind their own business.
