Golf is not just a sport for many, but a symbol of status and prestige. This game is often called the "king of hobbies" because there is no excessive noise on the field, and the match takes a very long time. This allows participants to communicate in detail on any topic.
Membership fee
One of the most prestigious golf clubs in the world - Augusta National in the USA - has an average membership fee of $20,000-40,000 per year. The Emirates Golf Club, located in Dubai, costs approximately $15,000 per year.
Equipment
One set of high-quality golf clubs (14 pieces) is valued between $1,500-5,000. If you include special sportswear and shoes, you'll need at least $2,000 to just get started.
Game cost
The one-time entry fee (green fee) averages $100-500. Premium clubs offer even higher prices.
Area and infrastructure
A single golf course requires an average of 60-80 hectares of land. Millions of dollars are spent on its maintenance and care throughout the year. Therefore, golf is mainly developed in economically powerful countries.
Status & Business Environment
Golf is not just a sport, but a platform for major agreements and business dialogues. Many big contracts are negotiated during the golf game. Therefore, this sport is mainly popular among entrepreneurs, investors, and high-ranking officials.
