Fred Terrell, a longtime L.A. Country Club member, sees the U.S. Open as an avenue to grow the game of golf and assist underserved communities in South L.A.

He was at the leading edge of the planned $15-million renovation of the Maggie Hathaway Golf Course, a nine-hole par-three just down Century Boulevard from SoFi Stadium at the corner of 98th Street and Western Avenue. “The common thread is a love for golf,” Terrell said. “They love golf at Maggie Hathaway. They love golf at LACC. Let’s put that energy together and marry our influence with what we can do in fundraising, when dollars are shorter at the public level. Let’s do something by pulling together the corporate sector.”
“We didn’t have much,” Fred Terrell said, “but I remember my father bringing food home to others who had less. He was there with candy, with food that was not used. He was always there to help. … It was the early ‘60s, and there was a lot of racial intolerance, but my parents held their head high. They were so proud of what they did and what they gave to me, and what they instilled in my brother.
