Andrew Shawaf, PacificCoastNews.comApparently, being a singer, dancer, clothing designer, restaurateur, mother lover and boxy gift-giver extraordinaire wasn't all Justin Timberlake had up his athletically-inclined sleeves.
The entertainer and, lest we forget, golf enthusiast is set to open Mirimichi, an eco-friendly, two-years-in-the-making golf course, in Tennessee on July 25.
"Mirimichi means 'place of happy retreat,' and that is what this experience is all about—golf, nature and people existing in harmony," Timberlake wrote in a welcome letter on the course's website this week.
In other words, he's bringing birdie back.
Since 2007, Timberlake has invested roughly $16 million in order to make the course a truly green green—perhaps taking a page from his ex-girlfriend's environmentally friendly book, the LEED-certified Mirimichi is on track to introduce solar-paneled golf carts in the coming years and already has the distinction of becoming the first course in the U.S. to receive the Audubon International's Classic Sanctuary certification (a big deal, if the amount of press releases touting the designation are anything to go by).
The endeavor seems to be par for the course for the budding entrepreneur, who just last week reportedly shopped around a proposal for a "memoir-like work" in which he recounts some of his most memorable rounds of golf and the famous faces with whom he's teed off.
Think of it like Twilight for the plaid-pants-wearing set.
