The golfers of Good Good joined the PGA’s Min Woo Lee for a pro-am partnership

A group of YouTube creators are drawing crowds on the PGA circuit. At the American Express pro-am event, the amateur golfers of Good Good paired with rising pro Min Woo Lee for an entertaining round of play.

Lee enjoyed 18 holes alongside Good Good members Stephen Castaneda, Garrett Clark, Brad Dalke, and Matt Scharff on January 17. The round took place at PGA West in California’s Coachella Valley, where the annual Desert Classic is held. The pro-am event is currently known as The American Express for sponsorship reasons.

The Good Good gang has parlayed its collective YouTube success into collaborations with golf big shots like Lee. “It was a cool experience for sure. It was nice to play with guys my age and that I can relate to a little more,” the 25-year-old Aussie said after the conclusion of his pro-am round. “I’ve known of them the last couple of years since they’ve blown up and reached out to them on social media, and I’ve always wanted to do a video with them, but there was no time. Today it all worked out.”

Lee elaborated on his respect for the YouTube golfing crew when he and Good Good member Tom “Bubbie” Broders were interviewed by the Golf Channel. “I knew [Garrett Clark] from a long time ago,” Lee said. “My manager and the founder of Good Good are very good friends and we just got into contact.”

Good Good’s 1.4 million subscribers and 357 million lifetime YouTube views make it one of the biggest channels in the golf world, but the challenge-loving twentysomethings aren’t the only creators imbuing the golf world with youthful exuberance. The team behind Breezy Golf, an outfit known for “brilliantly dumb sporting adventures,” recently announced a themed lounge in New York City.

The American Express pairs its pro-am silliness with a PGA Tour stop. Lee is one of more than 150 golfers who are competing to take home a top prize of more than $1.5 million. That’s the largest winner’s share in Desert Classic history. At the time of this post, Lee is floating close to par during his secound round of play.
