Open Fairways is bringing queer joy to the green.
Founded by four queer and trans current and former professional golfers, we are reclaiming our space in a sport we love — one that hasn’t always loved us back.
We’re redefining what golf looks and feels like by building a culture rooted in play, creativity, and belonging.
Through our work, we:
Cultivate community through inclusive events that bring people together on and off the course.
Create art that amplifies queer and trans expression in sport.
Educate and advocate for true inclusion and representation in golf.
Play — because joy is the most powerful form of resistance.

THIS IS GOLF LIKE IT'S NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE: JOYFUL, INCLUSIVE, HIGHLY VISIBLE, AND CONNECTING WITH QUEER AND TRANS COMMUNITY BY EMBRACING THE CELEBRATION AND POWER OF PRIDE.
Why partner with us?
Champion authentic inclusion in sport:
Partnering with Open Fairways (OF) positions you at the forefront of expanding access and joy in golf — celebrating queer and trans communities who have historically been left out of the conversation and centering queer and trans voices.
Align with a growing cultural movement:
Golf’s recent boom has opened the space for reinvention and Open Fairways is leading that creative charge by redefining what golf can look like: inclusive, queer, and joyfully camp.
Drive brand relevance and visibility:
Our “Miss Baltimore Crabs Professional Golf Series” events merge drag culture, humor, and sport — creating visually striking, viral-ready content that resonates far beyond the fairway.
Authenticity and advocacy:
As a queer and trans led organization “by us and for us,” Open Fairways offers brands a credible, values-driven way to genuinely show up for inclusion and inclusivity.
Expand your brand identity through play:
Our events and storytelling create opportunities for rands to showcase creativity, and joy in new ways — connecting through emotional resonance, not just marketing.
Be part of something truly new:
No one else is blending queer culture, drag, camp, and golf the way we are. Your brand’s support helps make history while reshaping what the sport stands for.
