How Golf has Failed average golfers

This week, Kris teases a major forthcoming GYH launch and shares his impassioned view that the Golf industry is not doing enough to cater for average Golfers. He reflects on the PGA's Golf For All research project, which found that 22.4 million people in Great Britain and Ireland engaged with Golf in some form, yet only 70% of people who play Golf identify as a Golfer. As Kris argues, there isn't a participation problem in Golf, there is an identity crisis. He offers his experiences and insights around how and why this problem has come to exist in the first place and offers his own unique solution, to help Golfers feel the sense of belonging they crave and are otherwise currently lacking. 🗓️ Save the date - 1st April 2026 🔗 Check out the PGA's Golf for All research paper for yourself 📧 Get in touch - kris@golfyourselfhealthy.com to share your own experiences and perspectives on the topic 🎦 Watch this episode in full video only on YouTube 🎧 Listen to this episode on your favourite podcast player
