While the NASCAR world has always been open and welcoming in the concept of sports crossovers, this time, it is a bit different. Rather than the two sports coming together, it is one of our stars who has gone on to engage with fans of the other sport. And who better than one of the most popular and loved drivers of NASCAR, Dale Earnhardt Jr, with his wife Amy, to mingle with the Golf fans? Another aspect that makes things more special is the $15,000,000 purse the Golf event has.
Dale Earnhardt Jr showed his ‘Azalea’ touch for the Golf tournament
Dale Jr recently paid a tribute to the Big Master’s event taking place at the Augusta National Golf Club. He and his wife Amy took the opportunity to celebrate their brand, High Rock vodka, which they have co-created in collaboration with Sugarlands Distilling Company.

Dale Jr’s wife Amy said, “Dale, I hear there’s a pretty famous golf tournament going on this week.”
To which he replies, “Oh yeah, that’s right. And today on What to Drink Wednesday, we’re going to be making the unofficial drink for the big tournament. It’s called the Azalea.” The drink is named after The Masters: Hole #13 Azalea.
After going through the ingredients and the recipe for the drink, they both raise a toast, and Dale Jr says, “And keep it in the fairway.”
The recipe in the video looks quite interesting and seems like a must-try. Especially given the big tournament starting soon with a massive $15 million up for grabs for the winner.
Dale Earnhardt Jr’s most recent proud moment
The legend, Dale Jr has taken up multiple business ventures since he retired from the Cup Series racing. Although, he still occasionally participates in the Xfinity Series and has a lot of involvement in everything related to NASCAR.
