On July 20, DJ Khaled hosted the 2023 We The Best Foundation X Jordan Brand Golf Classic at the Miami Beach Golf Club in Miami.
The stars in attendance to golf, spectate, and support included Sean “Diddy” Combs, who donated $150,000 at the event from the Sean Combs Foundation, as well as Serena Williams, Odell Beckham Jr, Quavo, Timbaland, Fat Joe, Ja Rule, Bubba Watson, Bubba Wallace, Cedric the Entertainer, Jalen Rose, The Dream, Mina Harigae, Shannon Sharpe, Cris Carter, Terrell Owens, Pat Perez, Marcus Jordan, Jeffrey Jordan, Hassan Whiteside, and more.
At the beginning of the event, Khaled and event partner Snipes presented a check for $20,000 in donation to Fore Life, a non-profit that utilizes the game of golf and its character building skills to empower vulnerable youth to help them survive and succeed, as well as a $10,000 check to Circle of Brotherhood, a Miami organization of primarily Black men from all walks of life dedicated to community service, economic development, crime prevention, conflict resolution and mediation, educational services, and youth mentorship.
Participating golfers hit the fairway at 9:30am with a shotgun tee-off, playing scramble style, until the tournament concluded with an awards ceremony which featured an exclusive DJ set by Swizz Beatz.
Khaled kicked off the celebrations on Wednesday evening with a We the Best Foundation x Jordan Brand celebratory cocktail party and dinner with Golf Classic guests at SWAN in Miami.
