Golf tourism is a key sector of Scotland’s overall tourism industry, and measuring its performance is vital. The Golf Tourism Monitor does this by gathering, analysing, and reporting on monthly figures provided by a wide cross-section of golf courses across Scotland.
After a successful first year in 2008 when 90 courses took part, the numbers increased to 108 in 2009 (including 9 hole courses), and we expect the numbers to increase further this year - which makes the Monitor the most reliable indicator of the performance of golf tourism in Scotland, and how the performance varies in different parts of the country and by different types of courses.
The 2010 Monitor is again being managed by Mike Williamson on behalf of Golf Tourism Scotland.
