Why is golf insurance essential?
Golf appears gentle but has specific risks : medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow), chronic shoulder tendinitis from repeated swings (10,000 swings/year for pros), disabling low back pain (golfer's #1 injury, 30% of amateurs affected), lightning on open courses (10-20 US deaths/year), errant-ball fractures (300 m drive hitting another player). The federation licence covers part but orthopaedic surgery exceeds caps.
Our golf insurance is the choice of PGA Tour, DP World Tour, LPGA players, Major Championships participants, FFG amateur golfers, St Andrews / Pebble Beach / Dubai travellers. For indoor precision sports (paintball, airsoft), see Paintball/Airsoft.
