English Golf Unions Want To Merge In Effort To Change Perceptions Of The Game

Oliver Brown with the surprising details of this merger in the name of trying to correct impressons of the game.

The EGU and EWGA argue that “the negative perception of golf being a divided game and not welcoming to all will be reinforced” should members vote against the merger.

“The sport will be perceived as being out of touch with today’s generation and not being reflective of the wishes of men and women playing sport in England. Failure to merge could also have a severe impact on future Government funding,” the joint document says.
