Golf News Marks 30th Anniversary in Golf Business News

Celebrating 30 Years of Golf News: A Milestone Anniversary

This month marks a significant milestone for golf enthusiasts as Golf News, the UK’s leading free golf magazine, celebrates its 30th anniversary since its launch in May 1994. Founded by publisher Matt Nicholson, Golf News has been a staple in the golf community, providing readers with the latest updates on amateur and professional golf events in the UK and around the world.

Reflecting on the magazine’s journey, Nicholson expressed his disbelief at how quickly three decades have passed since its inception. He recalled the challenges of introducing a free magazine in a market dominated by paid-for titles, but through perseverance and dedication, Golf News has become more popular than ever.

Under the editorial guidance of experienced golf journalist Nick Bayly for the past 22 years, Golf News has continued to deliver a diverse range of content, including club news, course reviews, player interviews, equipment reviews, travel features, and competitions. Bayly emphasized the importance of maintaining a print format in an increasingly digital world, highlighting the unique experience of holding a physical copy of the magazine.

With over 45,000 copies printed for each issue and a digital version available online, Golf News has expanded its reach to a wider audience, attracting thousands of golfers worldwide through its social media feeds. To commemorate the 30th anniversary, the May issue’s print run is being increased to 70,000 copies, ensuring that even more golfers can enjoy the magazine as the summer golf season kicks into high gear.

For companies looking to promote their brand in the special 30th anniversary edition of Golf News, they can contact Matt Nicholson for advertising opportunities. As Golf News continues to evolve and adapt to the changing landscape of the golf industry, it remains a valuable resource for golfers of all levels to stay informed and engaged with the game they love.
