An unlikely caddie makes good on a life-changing opportunity

This year, Evans Scholars Foundation will pay for 1,130 former high school caddies to go to college. One of them is Jayda Dookie, who made the most of an incredible opportunity to loop in the Evans Scholars program at Seminole Golf Club. The latest TGJ Film explores how the daughter of two immigrant parents, neither of whom had played golf before, wound up carrying at one of the world’s most prestigious clubs, what it takes to caddie at Seminole and what a free education means to Jayda and her family.

“Golf clubs, public or private, have a basic responsibility to pay attention to young people…Caddying is the glue to that.”
