y now, you’ve heard how golf participation has grown since the beginning of the pandemic. The game remains a safe way to get outside and exercise among friends and family while keeping a safe distance from each other. How much has golf grown? According to the National Golf Foundation, approximately 3 million Americans took up golf for the first time ever last year. Seventy-five percent of them were adults!
That’s a record high, and the NGF predicts an even greater number of newcomers will emerge this year.
