Golf enthusiasts and industry professionals will have a rare opportunity to come together and discuss the many facets of the sport, especially as it relates to people of color.
In addition to informative sessions, the EXPO will also feature the much-anticipated Jerry Tarde Courage awards ceremony, which recognizes individuals who have made remarkable contributions to the world of golf.
