Who are you?
What’s good. I’m Modi.
What’s golf to you?
Golf is a giant metaphor for life. and right now? Life’s looking kinda crazy for me. I’ll make it out though. at least, until i don’t. you know? It’s also a really cool and fun (and extremely difficult) sport that i think a lot more folks would love if they felt more seen and heard, culturally speaking. I’m working on that w/ my golf community, @swang
Target handicap?
Shit, probably like a 7? That sounds good, right?
Favorite golf course?
My favorite is the first course i ever played on – Maggie Hathaway in South Central LA. i heard they’re about to demolish it and build a new version of it!
Favorite item in your bag?
Probably this tiny Martine Rose baggy that I repurposed for all my loose tees. Keeps my fashionable, and organized.
Shoutouts?
Oh I got hella shout outs. Anthony Esponda (@antesponda) for inviting me to the Hypegolf invitational in 2023, cuz i wouldn’t have even paid golf any mind if he didn’t expose me to it. John Nichols (@lajethrojenkins), for encouraging me to get out there and play, and for giving me his old clubs. Josh (@jhubberman) for convincing me to build a company in the golf space, and that people need what we’re doing. Brian (@briansukgolf) for working with me on my fundamentals, and for swagging me out w/ @studentsgolf gear. Last but most importantly, the whole @swang community for coming out every week and hitting balls with us!
