Singapore: Women’s Golf Day (WGD) returns from May 26 to June 2, continuing its 11-year mission of engaging, empowering, and supporting women and girls through golf while uniting the golf industry around one consistent message: golf is for everyone.

Since launching in 2016, WGD has grown into a global movement embraced by over 1,350 golf facilities, resorts, governing bodies, brands, instructors, retailers, and communities across more than 85 countries.

Through a simple but effective event model, WGD has helped facilities worldwide create welcoming experiences that introduces thousands of women and girls to the game every year.

With women continuing to represent golf’s fastest-growing participation segment, WGD sees its role in helping facilities attract and retain female golfers becoming increasingly important to the future growth of the industry.

According to the National Golf Foundation, there are now more than eight million female golfers in the United States, representing a record 28% of all on-course golfers. Female participation has increased 46% since 2019, reflecting a major shift in the golf landscape and the growing influence of women in the sport and golf business.

For 11 years, WGD has gone beyond simply promoting women’s participation in golf. The organisation actively provides facilities with the tools, structure, and support needed to host events that are welcoming, approachable, and easy to execute. The in-person events, coupled with a strong digital platform and social media activation that saw 406 million impressions in 2025, has led to its increased popularity.

“Women’s Golf Day was built on the belief that growing the game requires more than awareness – it requires action, collaboration, and support from the entire industry,” said Elisa Gaudet, Founder of Women’s Golf Day. “We wanted to create a platform that made it easy for facilities around the world to participate while giving women and girls a positive first experience with golf. WGD was created to unite the golf industry around a single, powerful message – that golf is for women and girls everywhere.”

WGD provides participating facilities with a complete framework for success, including:

• A proven event format
• Marketing and promotional assets
• Digital and social media support
• Best-practice guidance for hosting successful events
• Local and global branding and visibility
• Flexibility to customise programming and pricing.

By bringing facilities together during one dedicated week, WGD aims to create a concentrated global moment that allows consumers, media, and the golf industry to focus attention on the individuals, organisations, and facilities creating opportunities for women and girls in golf and fuelling momentum worldwide.

WGD’s impact extends beyond a single week of events with on-going engagement and continued access to resources critical to long-term participation growth. WGD supports facilities year-round with digital tools and visibility designed to help maintain momentum after the events conclude.

This turnkey structure allows facilities of every type – public courses, private clubs, resorts, municipal facilities, driving ranges, golf entertainment venues, simulators, and academies – to participate in a way that best serves their audience, business model, and local community.
