Serena Williams' $150,000,000-worth husband Alexis Ohanian offers lucrative deal to junior golfer for LAGC in TGL

Serena Williams' husband, Alexis Ohanian, recently made an offer to a junior golfer, inviting him to join his team, the Los Angeles Golf Club (LAGC). The LAGC is a part of Tomorrow's Golf League (TGL).

TGL is golf league founded by legendary golfers Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy in partnership with the PGA Tour. LAGC was the inaugural team to join the league and boasts PGA Tour athletes such as Collin Morikawa, Sahith Theegala, Justin Rose, and Tommy Fleetwood.

Earlier this month, the club signed Tony Finau for a one-match contract to fill in for Rose and Fleetwood, who had prior commitments.

Recently, golf coach Jonathan Shuskey took to social media to share a photo of junior golfer Carter, praising his dedication . Shuskey noted that Carter was the only one to arrive early for practice in cold weather and he revealed that despite having his appendix removed earlier in the month, the little boy refused to miss out on playing the sport.

“This is Carter. Carter was our only junior golfer to show up for today’s Saturday morning clinic at 9am. It was roughly 32 degrees. Carter also had his appendix removed earlier in the week, but didn’t want to miss junior golf. THIS is why we do what we do . Carter, you are our hero . Thanks for coming out and spending Saturday morning with us ! #juniorgolf #growthegame,” Shuskey posted on X (formerly Twitter).

Moved by Carter's story and commitment, Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian, who has a net worth of $150 million (according to Celebrity Net Worth) expressed his admiration for the young golfer's "energy" and stated his desire to have Carter join LAGC in the future.

“Does he have a TGL team yet? Can it be LA GC? I wanna send him some merch ! Love this energy,” Serena Williams' husband replied.

Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian, and Venus Williams are the co-owners of LAGC.
