Summary
Notah Begay III, the only full-blooded Native American to compete on the PGA TOUR and a four-time winner, is this year’s Payne Stewart Award recipient — a prestigious honor recognizing his unwavering character, sportsmanship, and profound commitment to uplifting Native American communities. At 53, Begay will be celebrated in Atlanta this August for using his platform to drive real change, mirroring the legacy of Payne Stewart himself. His NB3 Foundation, founded in 2005, champions health and wellness for Native youth, reaching tens of thousands nationwide. With a $500,000 grant from Southern Company, Begay is channeling $200,000 to his foundation and $100,000 to the Albuquerque Community Foundation — amplifying his impact. Beyond philanthropy, he’s built golf courses and launched a national junior championship to empower the next generation, proving that greatness isn’t just about trophies — it’s about transforming lives.
