Michael Jordan Raises Bar At The Grove XXIII With Drones Serving Treats To Golfers
KEY POINTS
- Michael Jordan is using drones to serve guests
- The Grove XXIII is by invite-only membership
- Pro golfer gives an assessment on The Grove XXIII's fairways
Michael Jordan is no stranger when it comes to doing the impossible in anything he does.
"His Airness" has done it again, offering his guests advanced special service when they want food and drinks while playing golf.
Rather than the usual beer carts used at golf clubs, the NBA great has turned to technology to spice things up in the form of drones.
No less than tennis star Carol Wozniacki was amazed by the service and even took videos to show it works.
The Grove XXIII opened in 2019 after years of planning, developing and constructing, TMZ Sports reported. It sits on a huge plot of land over in Hobe Sound, Florida.
The fairways are unsurprisingly sleek and there is also a 15,000-square clubhouse where people can hang out. But the most impressive part is the flying drones that Jordan has commissioned to serve guests.
It is lush and definitely something worth checking out, but the only problem is that membership is limited. As of this writing, The Grove XXIII has less than 100 members. By the looks of it, that number will grow but at a snail’s pace.
Aside from its amenities, there are more impressive things to expect at Jordan’s golf club. That includes golf carts that can run up to 35 miles per hour.
There is even a cigar roller at the clubhouse. Also, anyone who scores an eagle on Hole 6 gets a special ring commemorating Jordan's six titles, Alex Shapiro of NBC Sports reported.
Aside from Wozniacki, Rick Fowler has already tried playing at The Grove XXIII. Here is what he had to say in a post from Golf.com.
"The shorter you hit it, the wider it is, so the tees and pins are done every day, so the golf course can play as long as you want, but they set the back tees at roughly 7,000 or 7,100 yards, and MJ just plays the back tees,” Fowler shared.
