Dear Atlanta,
Being back home in Atlanta, especially East Atlanta, was more than just a visit – it was a full-circle moment for me. Growing up in the city and attending Morehouse College on a golf scholarship were pivotal experiences that shaped who I am today. So, returning for our Eastside Golf Community Day at Charlie Yates Golf Course on August 3rd felt like a dream come true. It's a place that holds countless memories for me; I went from receiving lessons there as a kid to winning a national championship for Morehouse in 2010.
Community Golf Day was truly special. Seeing so many of you come out to show love and support for Eastside Golf meant everything to us. It was incredible to witness how our vision resonated with people of all ages and backgrounds, bringing everyone together to celebrate the game in its purest form. We aim to introduce the next generation to the sport and demonstrate what it can do for their well-being and self-expression.
Eastside Golf was founded on the belief that being yourself is what golf has been missing. Our logo and brand name are rooted in the spirit of East Atlanta, a testament to the authenticity we champion. This past weekend was a reflection of that, and I couldn't be more grateful to the community for embracing us.
I’m thrilled to share that Eastside Golf apparel is now available in the PGA Tour Superstore here in Atlanta. It’s another tie to the community and a place where you can get the gear to continue supporting the brand. We’re excited to be part of your golfing journey and to offer apparel that stands for authenticity, inclusivity and style.
Looking ahead, we're committed to continuing this journey and breaking barriers in the golf world. We envision Eastside Golf as a catalyst for change, offering more accessibility and encouraging everyone to be themselves on the course. With your support, we're just getting started.
Thank you, Atlanta, for opening your arms to us and for your unwavering support. You’ve made this journey unforgettable, and we can't wait to keep moving forward with you. We’ll be seeing you again soon!
With gratitude and love,
Olajuwon Ajanaku
