DORAL, Fla. — Because of the spectacular golf exploits of living legend Tiger Woods, the Doral Golf Resort & Spa that straddles the edge of Miami one of the best known golf and country clubs in America.
Thousands of African American businesspeople, high-ranking corporate executives, entrepreneurs and celebrities converged on the 5-star Doral Country Club in suburban Miami for the 19th annual Black Enterprise Golf & Tennis Challenge.
The BE Pepsi Golf and Tennis Challenge was also sponsored by no less than American Express, BMW, Pepsico, FedEx, Bombay Sapphire, Gatorate, Lays, Quaker, Tropicana, Ralph Lauren, Region’s, Aeatna and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
