Low Awareness of the Game: A Key Market Restraint

The golf industry is mainly concentrated in North America and the European region.

Furthermore, around 74% of the golf facility centers are concentrated in North America and the European region. This suggests the awareness of playing golf is concentrated in these two regions.

Also, commercial centers that offer indoor golf course training centers have limited presence, notably in metro cities. This possesses a greater challenge for the adoption of the golf simulators.

On the contrary, the professional golfers are increasingly adopting indoor golf simulators for improving their game. The latest advancements in the simulator with an app-based solution integrated with a smartphone are anticipated to be one of the better prospects for the market growth.
