In the third installment of his The Crusade series, Joe Papadakis continues his candid day-to-day journal entries, beginning with the first days of the COVID-19 lockdown in March 2020. Over the ensuing months, Joe shares an intimate glimpse into his life, from rounds on the golf course to its transformation into a public park, providing safe, open spaces for those confined by lockdown restrictions.
