Since its initial launch during “National Golf Day” in May, Make Golf Your Thing continues to build momentum and support across the golf industry around establishing a framework for a more diverse and inclusive community.
Make Golf Your Thing is broadening the brand to establish it as an overarching umbrella for the industry’s diversity, equity and inclusion collaboration said an announcement from the World Golf Foundation today.
