Job description

Malbon was born in Los Angeles during a transformative chapter in Stephen and Erica Malbon’s lives: parenthood. During this time, golf became more than just a game; it became a source of connection and purpose, providing a sense of grounding amidst a period of change. As their love for the sport deepened, they recognized both the beauty of its traditions and the opportunity to evolve them for a modern audience. Stephen and Erica sought to honor the heritage of golf while opening it up to a broader community, blending time-honored values with a fresh, creative spirit. Determined to push the game forward, they infused golf with the energy of fashion, music, art, and lifestyle sports. Their goal was to make golf inclusive and relevant to a new generation.
