Welcome to the official website of the African American Golfers Hall of Fame, Inc. (AAGHOF). Take as much time as you wish.
We hope that this site will serve as an additional resource to provide a deeper historic perspective about the African American involvement in the game of golf since indeed the 1800s. We want you to use this site to see just how deep our "roots" have been and are in "growing the game of golf." (more...) |
