Alex Fourie, Turning Adversity Into Opportunity Through Golf

from The Mark White Show · host Mark White

On this episode of The Mark White Show, I’m joined by Alex Fourie, a PGA professional and founder of Single Hand Golf, whose journey began in a Ukrainian orphanage and led to breaking barriers in the world of golf. Born with one arm and facing early life challenges, Alex found purpose and belonging through the game of golf after being adopted and brought to the United States. Today, he is one of the top adaptive golfers in the country, a PGA instructor, and a passionate advocate for children with adaptive needs. In this conversation, Alex shares how golf became more than a sport, how resilience shaped his path, and why giving others the opportunity to belong is at the heart of his mission. From mentoring young golfers to supporting Ukrainian orphans, Alex reminds us that true success is measured by the difference we make in the lives of others.
