Uneven Fairways (Encore Presentation)
Time: Wednesday 8 – 9 p.m.
Thursday 1 – 2 p.m.
Host: Samuel L. Jackson
GOLF CHANNEL will air a special encore presentation of a first-of-its kind documentary revealing the story of the little known, but rich history of African-Americans who were forbidden to play golf at its highest level and refused to take no for an answer. Hosted by Samuel L. Jackson, Uneven Fairways celebrates the men and women of the United Golf Association (UGA) who had the courage to challenge segregation, ultimately paving the way for future starts of the game. Featuring conversations with several of golf’s pioneers and their families, insight from golf legends Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer and a personal tribute from Tiger Woods, Uneven Fairways tells the story of a time when African-Americans – denied a place on tour – found a place in the sun.
