Women Who Golf (WWG) is an online community which provides support to increase women's participation in golf.[1]
History
Women Who Golf was founded in June 2019 by an Australian golfer, Tuscany Williams, to connect female golfers.[2][3] Williams drew on her own experience of often having to play with older golfers due to a lack of peers her age.[4][5] By the COVID-19 pandemic, its membership grew to include participants sharing experiences, advice, and golf-related resources.[3]
By 2024, it had expanded to Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States.[6]
Community
Women Who Golf is an online community where women exchange experiences, advice, and information.[7][5]
Discussions within the community range from logistical concerns like finding local playing partners and questioning traditional "ladies' tees," to more personal issues such as managing relationships within the sport.[3][4]
