On September 13, 2024, as the impressive 13,000-square-meter GOLFZON (Tianjin) City Golf will make its official debut at the Tianjin Mei River Convention and Exhibition Center, the world will witness the grand global launch of GOLFZON City Golf, ushering in a new era of digital golf innovation. Simultaneously, the 2024 GOLFZON Open Finals will also commence, gathering over 100 golfers from China and abroad. This spectacular digital golf showdown at the GOLFZON (Tianjin) City Golf will captivate the attention of a global audience.

A New Ecosystem: Leading the Way in Golf Development

In 2024, GOLFZON CHINA introduced the innovative concept of the "City Golf," a groundbreaking development in digital golf venues, which was transformed into reality in a remarkably short timeframe of less than 100 days.

The GOLFZON City Golf brings the expansive 18-hole golf experience, traditionally spanning hundreds of acres of countryside, to a compact, over 10,000-square-meter indoor urban space. By integrating advanced indoor golf simulators with artificial putting greens, it creates a digital golf environment that seamlessly blends the artificial with the natural, the traditional with the modern, and the virtual with the real. With all the excitement of just 1/60th the size of a traditional outdoor 18-hole course, along with lower construction, maintenance, and operational costs, and a replicable business and management model, it stands as a representative ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) case in the golf industry. Amidst a rising number of golf enthusiasts in China and a halt in the expansion of traditional outdoor golf courses, this innovative business model in the golf industry plays a crucial role in fostering sustainable development within the sector.

Innovative Technology: Creating Exceptional Experiences for Golfers

The Golfzon City Golf offers expansive areas and aesthetically pleasing surroundings. With a layout of 18 holes, the facility combines state-of-the-art digital indoor golf simulators with real terrain elements, including an artificial putting green in the short game area. The intricately designed artificial landscaping in this space features bunkers and water hazards that not only authentically mimic the challenges of traditional outdoor courses but also elevate the overall aesthetic of the venue.

Before reaching the short game area of the digital course, all player shots are taken on the simulator. When the ball arrives at the short game area, the simulator screen lifts smoothly to align with the actual short game space. Above the short game area, color-coded laser indicators display the locations of each player's balls, helping them navigate the completion of the hole with the appropriate putters or short irons.

After players complete each hole, they input their scores on a tablet near the real dedicated short irons. The system then automatically aggregates the scores of strokes from both the simulator and the short irons. As players move their golf bags to the next hole, smart devices will seamlessly identify them and automatically start the next round.

With the innovative concept of a complete 18-hole indoor golf course, intelligent equipment, meticulously designed short irons, and a professional and comprehensive back-end management system, GOLFZON City Golf allows people to enjoy golf with greater ease and convenience, fully embracing the new experience brought by digital golf while unlocking endless possibilities for digital golf competitions.

A New Quality Productive Force: Transforming the Golf Sector

The GOLFZON City Golf is envisioned as a new urban landmark, encapsulating GOLFZON CHINA's deep industry insights, innovative thinking, high-quality simulator offerings, and premier venue planning. It stands as the pinnacle of design among GOLFZON digital venues.

The GOLFZON City Golf seeks to engage a wider urban population by establishing more dynamic city sports environments and high-quality lifestyle centers. It addresses the increasing interest in indoor golf among existing enthusiasts while also broadening the sports market to promote engagement in new sports consumption. The fusion of digital venues with digital competitions brings revolutionary innovations to digital golf, establishing a new platform for promoting golf sports and culture. Moreover, the GOLFZON City Golf bridges diverse environments through digital golf, leading to both internal collaboration within the industry and external connections, ultimately transforming the entire business landscape.

This represents GOLFZON CHINA's innovative exploration and valuable attempt in the realm of digital sports, aspiring to refine a replicable business model for extensive promotion and forming a nationwide cluster of CITY GOLF. These courses are poised to make significant contributions to the development of China's digital sports industry, the construction of digital cities, and the enhancement of people's quality of life, becoming a "new quality productive force" to drive social civilization and economic growth.
