Golf Zone Co., Ltd. (CEO Park Kang-soo and Choi Deok-hyung) announced on the 27th that its strategic products for overseas markets such as City Golf and GDR MAX, which were introduced through the "2026 PGA Merchandise Show" in Orlando, U.S., from January 21 to 23 (local time), received great reviews there.
Numerous visitors, including golf industry officials and buyers, visited the 2026 PGA Show, the world's largest golf fair. The golf zone, which participated for the 11th time this year, is the largest participation ever, and has operated a total of two exhibition booths in City Golf and Golf Zone America. It proved the possibility of City Golf's business expansion in the global market, where sales consultations are conducted with companies and institutions from dozens of countries, including the Middle East, Northern Europe, and North America.
The city golf course "City Golf" booth, which was introduced for the first time in the world by the golf zone in 2024, drew attention from visitors by implementing a hall of City Golf in the exhibition hall and presenting experience opportunities. By combining the advantages of screen golf and field golf, the biggest attention was paid to providing an experience that seems to be a real golf experience indoors in the city without being constrained by time, space, and weather.
Positive reactions and comments from several famous golf influencers who have experienced city golf have been delivered through various social media channels. A golf influencer who has experienced city golf said, "It was the most impressive content I've ever seen on the PGA show," and most influencers were one of the most characteristic scenes of city golf, and the "screen" opened up after the long game and exclaimed exclamations whenever they advanced to the putting green.
In particular, Golf Zone has signed partnership contracts with local companies in Canada and the United States, respectively, showing the possibility of city golf, an urban golf platform, introducing it to the North American market. Through this contract, the golf zone will also be able to introduce the Golf Zone Open, a world-class prize-winning competition held in city golf, in North America. In response, Chinese media, which opened the world's first city golf in Tianjin in 2024, Yanji in 2025, and held a golf zone opening tournament at a city golf stadium, reported that city golf, which started in China, had successfully debuted in the overseas golf market.
At the Golf Zone America booth, interest in the latest golf practice simulator "GDR MAX," which was first unveiled, and the lesson session of David Leadbetter, a world-class golf instructor who used it, was also high. GDR MAX is an all-in-one golf practice simulator equipped with world-class sensing technology that provides shots, weight movement, and swing analysis with a single swing, and supports more effective golf lessons with a huge touch display that looks like a mirror at the same time as a swing.
Near-pin and long-shot demonstrations using the golf simulator TuVisionNX, which concentrates the unique technology of the golf zone that led the K-Golf, were also held at all times. In addition, Korean screen golf tour GTOUR Jeon Jae-han, An Ye-in Pro, U.S. golf pro Cheyenne Woods, and James McDonald, CCO of the Golf Zone Americas Corporation, which owns PGA Pro qualifications, played foursome and captured many audiences through golf zone simulators.
"It was a good opportunity to announce the news of Citi Golf's entry into North America through the 2026 PGA Show, where Golf Zone Group participated as the largest ever, and we were able to directly check the global market reaction to major technologies and services such as GDR MAX, TwoVision NX and SmartCaddie," said Sean Byun, CEO of Golf Zone America. "Based on the interest of industry officials who visited the 2026 PGA Show and the consultations received, we will accelerate business expansion in the U.S. market."
Meanwhile, Golf Zone Group has shown the possibility of expanding its business in the global golf market through this PGA show and plans to focus on realizing the presence of global total platform companies and growing their visualized performance based on globalization strategies based on overseas corporations such as the U.S., China, and Japan. In addition, the golf zone will quickly introduce city golf in Korea, including the North American market, where a city golf contract was signed at the 2026 PGA Show with China, which opened its second city golf store.
