Legacy Golf is striving to impact and expand the game of golf by helping create a legacy for the younger generation who are in need! 

We see golf as more than just a game! It’s a platform that helps stimulate growth in many aspects of our lives, builds community and grows relationships, increases experiences and opportunities, and so much more. However, many young athletes lack the resources to experience, grow and advance in the sport. Legacy Golf is committed to bridging that gap and creating pathways for the next generation!

Our scholarship will go towards helping students in lower socioeconomic statuses further their education, who are aspiring to play collegiate golf, are already on a collegiate team, and/or are looking to pursue a golf related degree!

Any high school senior or undergraduate student, who comes from a background of financial need may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they play golf competitively or if they are pursuing a degree related to the golf industry and have at least a 3.0 GPA.

To apply, reply to the prompt below.

Winning Application

Charles Doyle
Pennsylvania State University-Main CampusNew York, NY
Golf has profoundly shaped my life, as an athlete, student, and community member, teaching me discipline, focus, and the value of building community. I was inspired to make a difference in the game of golf by my first golf coach, Randy Taylor, whose engaging lessons and empowering personality first sparked my curiosity in the sport. Moreover, our shared African-American identity not only enlightened me on what is possible for people of color in the golf business. Continually, he inspired me to pave the way for other minorities as an African-American PGA professional, considering this group represents less than 1% of golf professionals. Through experiences like leading the Bridge Golf Harlem Program, I have improved my game and embraced the responsibilities of being a positive student-athlete role model. As a more experienced golfer, I support my peers by teaching them golf techniques and sharing insights on etiquette, tournament experiences, and course management. The camaraderie developed in long practice sessions and the lessons from competition, such as handling pressure and overcoming difficulties, have made me resilient and adaptable both on and off the course. Furthermore, observing the instruction PGA-accredited professionals in such a supportive environment has further fueled my ambition to effect positive change in golf by exemplifying the leadership qualities demonstrated by my coaches. Additionally, volunteering with First Tee of Metropolitan NY as a Junior Golf Instructor has allowed me to cultivate new golfers' passion while strengthening my own leadership and communication skills. Golf has become much more than a sport; it serves as a foundation for my academic and professional ambitions. In college, I am committed to continuing my journey both on and off the course by majoring in PGA Professional Golf Management at Schreyer Honors College, Penn State University. This unique program blends my athletic interests with my career goals and further develops my understanding of golf as a business, sport, and vehicle for lifelong learning. By combining my academic pursuits with my dedication to golf, I hope to contribute to the golf community and prepare for a future as a PGA professional who inspires others. The influence of golf extends far beyond tournaments and practice ranges; it is shaping my leadership, connecting me with communities, and guiding my academic and professional life. As I continue into college, I am determined to make the most of every opportunity, striving for excellence in all aspects of my life while encouraging the same commitment in others.
