#Golf and the Millennial Generation

Over the past two decades – which could be considered “recent” in the long history of golf – the participation rate among 18- to 34-year-olds has declined. Today, members of this age cohort are known as millennials, or Gen-Y, and fewer of them are playing golf than the generation before them. This concerns us for several reasons, but primarily because this is the age when golf participation has historically peaked.
