PLAYGOLFAMERICA.COM LAUNCHES REDESIGNED WEBSITE
Consumers to Access Leading Player Development Programs and PGA/LPGA Professionals on PGA.com
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — PlayGolfAmerica.com, a central resource designed to connect golfers to leading player development programs and the PGA/LPGA Professionals who conduct them, has been redesigned with streamlined navigation and social media interactivity, it was announced today by the PGA of America. Play Golf America will be featured prominently within the main navigation of PGA.com, where consumers will be able to easily find a program that benefits their individual needs.
On the redesigned website, golfers will be able to:
· view content based on their ability
· search for programs and events via the main navigation on PGA.com
· follow PGA Professionals on Twitter directly from the site
· see friends who "like" golf and message them directly about going to play
Whether new to the game or already a golfer, the redesigned website highlights popular programs, including Get Golf Ready, the game’s leading player development program; PGA Junior League Golf; and the PGA Sports Academy.
“We will continue to evolve our digital experiences at the PGA of America in order to bridge the gap between online engagement and on-course activity,” said Kevin Ring, chief marketing officer of the PGA. “This is another step in fulfilling our strategic mandate to grow the game of golf and serve our members.”
PGA.com, which is managed by Turner Sports, is the official online site for the PGA of America, and the ultimate destination for all who love to watch, learn and play golf. By adding these programs to PGA.com, golfers are better connected to the game and PGA/LPGA Professionals.
