In order to create a digital profile, golfers will need to have an email address in their golfer profile at the club level first. If you are having trouble creating your profile it is mostly likely we don’t have your email. To find out if your email is in your golfer profile or to provide an email address contact the MGA at [email protected] or contact your home club. Please provide your first and last name, and GHIN number in your correspondence.
Below is some additional information and frequently asked questions:
