[Charlotte, NC] — Greenwood Golf has unveiled Black 9, a dynamic new publication inspired by the camaraderie and connections forged at golf tournaments, friendly rounds, golf trips, conferences, and conventions.
Described as “more than a magazine,” Black 9 aims to be a hub for conversations extending beyond the fairway. Much like JET Magazine once unified communities and showcased culture, Black 9 seeks to highlight the intersection of golf, Black-owned businesses, and the broader Black community.
“Through the spirit of Greenwood Golf, we’ve always sought to foster connection, growth, and opportunity,” said Chris Word, Founder and Editor-In-Chief of Black 9. “With this magazine, we’re continuing that mission by creating a platform that celebrates culture, fosters education, and empowers our community through the lens of golf.”
What to Expect from Black 9:
• Conversations that Matter: Articles addressing key discussions on and off the course, from strategy to camaraderie.
• Spotlight on Black Excellence: Features on Black-owned businesses, industry leaders, and innovators in the golf community.
• Community-Centered Content: Coverage of initiatives, events, and organizations strengthening Black communities.
This quarterly publication celebrates the passion for golf while amplifying the cultural and entrepreneurial contributions of Black golfers and professionals. For those seeking a platform that mirrors their experiences on the course and in the community, Black 9 promises to deliver.
