Portland, Ore./ Brooklyn NY (Oct 23, 2012) – Traveling golfers will now be able to read and watch the work of top journalists covering the world’s greatest golf destinations, while winging their way to 377 destinations in 63 countries aboard the world’s leading airline. Hemispheres Magazine, the award-winning in-flight publication of United Airlines, has partnered with Golf Media Network (GMN, parent company of The A Position) to publish feature stories about top golf destinations written by GMN’s award-winning writers. The first feature, on Scottsdale, AZ, will run in the March 2013 issue of Hemispheres.
GMN’s signature program, Golf Road Warriors, sends four writers and a videographer to cover the most distinctive golf destinations on the planet-from Scotland to Scottsdale-by posting stories, photos, and video about courses, hotels, restaurants, and other local attractions at golfroadwarriors.com. Hemispheres will follow and publish articles about four Golf Road Warriors adventures next year.
Jeff Wallach, Executive Editor of Golf Media Network, says, “Hemispheres is the ideal print partner for Golf Road Warriors-better than a crisply struck gap wedge into an elevated green. Their affluent, educated, and well-traveled readers will appreciate finely crafted content about the best places to stay and play golf across the globe. Our writers will deliver the goods with course reviews, insider tips and the broad-based knowledge of journalists who cover golf and travel for a living. The only thing they won’t do is promise to lower your handicap.”
Joe Keohane, editor of Hemispheres, adds, “This was a no-brainer for us. Working with GMN gives us access to some of the best golf writers on the planet, and it will give our readers’ lively, entertaining and above all top-quality stories from some of the world’s greatest golf courses.”
Golf Media Network is a portfolio of websites featuring the best golf and travel journalists, whose work is collected at The A Position.com. Golf Road Warriors is a GMN site dedicated to coverage of the world’s most distinctive, coveted, and unusual golf destinations.
