Scottsdale, Arizona, United States: Troon and Putting World Scottsdale have announced a new partnership agreement.

Putting World has selected Troon to provide sales and marketing, accounting, human resources and procurement support.

Located in the Scottsdale Promenade shopping centre, just one mile from Troon’s Corporate Headquarters, Putting World is a 25,000 square-foot golf entertainment and event venue.

Putting World’s 18-hole putting course provides a realistic golf experience. Designed to be challenging and fun, the putting course was created for both beginning golfers and advanced players to enjoy.

“We are thrilled to partner with Putting World Scottsdale and their team,” said Dolf May, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Troon, an Executive Member of the Asian Golf Industry Federation.

“This unique putting experience is located in the heart of Scottsdale golf and is generating a lot of buzz in the industry. We look forward to assisting the team in accomplishing their goals,” added May.

In addition to the putting course, Putting World also features Bar19, a bar and restaurant offering a chef-driven menu with locally sourced food and specialty cocktails in an upscale setting; private event spaces for corporate outings, fund-raisers, parties and more; a golf shop selling clothing, putters and covers; a build shop to customise putters; performance studios for putting lessons and fittings; all surrounded by 55 86-inch televisions providing an excellent setting for watching sports.

“As a PGA Professional, I am excited about the opportunity Putting World provides to introduce new golfers to the game, appeal to the existing player, and allows golfers who may not be able to play a full game of golf, to stay engaged with the game,” said Steve Leonard, COO of Putting World and President of the Southwest PGA.

Tim Suzor, CEO and founder of Putting World, added: “As a PGA member, I am grateful for what Troon has done for the game of golf and we are all excited to see the impact our partnership has on the growth of Putting World heading into our second year.”

Putting World is open to the public for daily play but also offers a variety of memberships, including corporate memberships, available for unique, exclusive experiences as part of the innovative future of golf.

Members enjoy unlimited rounds, privileged access to Putting World’s state-of-the-art performance studios, professional instruction benefits and member clinics, special member events and more.

In mid-March, Putting World will host the first World Putting Tour Championship sponsored by PING with a US$100,000 purse.
