He Was Worth The Trouble.

He Was Worth The Trouble.. I flew all the way to the Bahamas to find a random golfer, and the trip went wrong before we even reached the course. The airline left my golf clubs in Fort Lauderdale, my tee time was at 3:30, and with no guarantee my bag was coming, my backup plan was to skip the video entirely and go swim with the pigs. We drove across the island to the Ocean Club, where it was nearly empty on a holiday Monday, and I asked the pro shop if they knew any members who were scratch or better to play me one v one, straight up, for $100 a hole. They told me about a kid on the range named Jaden. One look at his swing and I knew he was the one. Then my clubs finally showed up, and right after, the pro shop told us we weren't allowed to film. Jaden got on the phone and got us cleared. Jaden is from the Bahamas, played college golf, and comes from a family of pilots. His parents and grandparents all fly, and he can already pilot planes himself. His dad is a PGA professional who turned pro at 18 and has been his coach his whole life. He went to Albany Academy, a golf boarding school where a lot of the kids I played junior golf against in Florida went, and we realized we'd probably played the same tournament without ever knowing it.
