iGolf has recorded its strongest-ever month for new subscribers, underlining the continued growth of non-club golf and the role it plays in bringing more people into the game.
Last month, iGolf welcomed more than 6,100 new subscribers as it continues to support golfers in gaining a Handicap Index and tracking their progress.
So far this year, nearly 1,000 new female subscribers have joined iGolf. Meanwhile, iGolfers recorded 105,445 rounds in May – the first time the figure has passed 100,000. There was also a 12.8% increase on scores submitted from January-May 2026, compared to 2025, with more than 270,500 rounds played.
iGolf also continues to act as a gateway into club membership, with nearly 30,000 iGolfers having transitioned into affiliated golf clubs since the platform’s launch.
iGolf has also surpassed 10,000 followers on Instagram, building a vibrant space to inspire, support and connect golfers of all abilities.
Claire Hodgson, iGolf/iPlay director at England Golf, said: “This record month is a fantastic milestone for iGolf and a testament to the growing appetite for the game. We’re seeing more people than ever discovering golf, gaining their first Handicap Index, and building a real connection with the sport.
“What’s particularly encouraging is how iGolf is supporting golfers on their journey – from those taking their very first steps, to many who are now moving into club membership and becoming part of the wider golf community. That progression is vital to the long-term health of the sport and we’re incredibly proud to play a role in it.”
