In 2019, Michael Jordan opened his golf course – The Grove XXIII – near Hobe Sound in Florida. The club maintains uber-exclusivity by having only invite-only members, and is minutes away from the Medalist Golf Club (where Tiger Woods practices). Known to be a really fancy place with top-tier amenities, the club apparently uses a blend of technology and class.

Anyone making an eagle on Hole 6 gets a special ring celebrating Jordan's titles, while members also have a cigar roller in the clubhouse. Reports also add that Jordan is currently looking to keep the golf club exclusive, with less than 100 members.
