Got Style? Part II - A conversation with Eastside Golf- The story of Olajuwon

New #TeesMe podcast episode, this is part two of our conversation with “Game Changer” Olajuwon Ajanaku of Eastside Golf. Olajuwon launched the Eastside Golf Club brand in November 2019 to transform the perception of golf. Raised on the Eastside of Atlanta, Georgia, his golf journey began at John A. White Golf Course and golf brought Olajuwon a sense of identity as a person. What makes a brand? A good story. In this episode we continue our chat with the man behind the brand, Olajuwon. Listen in to hear Q&A on: * His golf journey, his vision * The art of getting a golf scholarship * Stories from the introverted * How Golfers Talk * Navigating ignorance with Jamal (side note: I saw Just Mercy twice and I just don’t know about Alabama) * Getting in the game to network and grow This brand is not a collection of random prints, being endorsed and passed off as fashion. Eastside Golf is a vibe and represents the future face of golf. Isn’t it great to know a bit about the man behind the brand? ******************************* What You Need To Know IG: @EastSideGolf Website: www.EastSideGolfClub.com AAGD Article: https://www.africanamericangolfersdigest.com/how-golfer-turned-business-professional-olajuwon-ajanaku-made-his-brand-a-lifestyle/ ************************************** #blacklivesmatter #blackGolfersMatter Golf Terms Used (for my non-golfers): * birdie: score of 1 under par * chip: a type of shot, taken from an area close to the green * fairway: the grass between the tee box and the green * green: where you putt the ball in the hole, where the flagstick is * hole: the entire objective is to hit the ball into this * par: score an accomplished player is expected to make on a hole (3,4,5) * putt: a type of shot, taken on the green to make the ball roll into the hole * tee box: area where players first hit the ball, to start every hole * scorecard: the card used to record scores for each player of every hole * scoring club: the club a player may choose for a shot, that they know will deliver * yards: how each hole is measured from the tee box to the center of the green
