During Black History Month, the unveiling of The Uneven Lies Legacy Series Polo Shirt was an exciting moment, brought forth by the Ted Rhodes Foundation and Ebony Greens TM, LLC. A portion of the proceeds from sales will be directed towards the Ted Rhodes Foundation HBCU Golf Educational Fund, a beneficent initiative offering scholarships to students participating in HBCU golf teams and extending support to HBCU golf programs, including the esteemed Fisk University Bulldogs in Nashville, TN.
“This shirt is important because it showcases African American golf trailblazers and keeps their legacies alive so their efforts to make the game of golf accessible for African Americans is not forgotten,” says Tiffany N. White, M.Ed., DTM , President of the Ted Rhodes Foundation. “Also, the Uneven Lies book written by Pete McDaniel was a huge success and many people have not heard about or read the book. And the book is a must read and will be available at a later date.”
These polo shirts, available in three unisex styles, are crafted to reflect the essence of the cover design of the book “Uneven Lies: The Heroic Story of African Americans in Golf” authored by Pete McDaniel, a notable golf writer, with a Foreword penned by Tiger Woods. They resonate with the legacy of golf pioneer Ted Rhodes and other luminaries of the sport. Composed of 88% Polyester and 12% Spandex, the shirts boast exceptional moisture-wicking properties, ensuring comfort during wear.
“Wear your polo shirt proudly to celebrate African American Golf History and honor true icons. Your contribution matters,” said a Facebook post on the Ted Rhodes Foundation social media page.
Adorned with these polo shirts, individuals can proudly commemorate African American Golf History and pay homage to the genuine icons of the sport. Every purchase contributes significantly to this noble cause. Hence, patrons are encouraged to acquire their shirts promptly, whether for personal use or as thoughtful gifts for fellow golf enthusiasts.
