The Bridge
About the Film:
If you read “Crossing Over” in TGJ No. 23, then you know Bob Rubin isn’t afraid to break the traditional private country club status quo. What you didn’t read is that Rubin sees golf as a template for life beyond the course. In 2016, he and his wife Stéphane Samuel founded The Bridge Golf Foundation—a year-round sports-based youth development program based in Harlem that prepares young men for life after high school.
During the school year, the foundation’s students report to The Bridge Golf Learning Center on 116th and Lennox in Harlem. They receive daily tutoring and college prep, train on state-of-the-art simulators and then hit local city courses to sharpen their games. In the summer, the kids live, work and practice at The Bridge—Rubin's private country club on some of Long Island’s most coveted golfing land. How do these two Bridges connect? Watch the film to find out.

Clark's Revival
About the Film:
Clark Willard was days away from opening Sand Valley as its first head golf professional in 2017 before a near-fatal accident left him millimeters away from being paralyzed. Five years later, Willard has reimagined his golf life and regained his mobility through the restoration of hickory clubs.
The Ladies of Erin Hills
About the Film:
With its walking-only policy, Erin Hills is known for its robust caddie program that employs more than 150 during its high season. The club is also recognized as a place for women to get started on the bag, with a substantial amount of female caddies every year (as of 2022, 18 are women). Alix Larson is just one of the young women who have had their lives changed walking these major-championship fairways.
The Caddie who Camped at Cypress Point
About the Film:
In 1982, Ray Sterbick was caddying at Cypress Point and in need of shelter. So he pitched a tent in the trees behind the 16th hole and lived there in secrecy for months. 40 years later, he’s one of Cypress' longest tenured and most beloved caddies. And, as his looping career comes to a close, he's finally ready to share how he made one of golf's most iconic holes his home.
