Portland, Ore. (Sept. 16, 2014) – Golf Media Network’s (GMN) innovative digital publication, The Grain: Changing Your Read, releases its sixth issue of the season, this one taking an in-depth look at the upcoming Ryder Cup. As the U.S. team tries to overcome its 2012 Sunday collapse, The Grain- produced by the writers of The A Position- brings readers an in-depth interview with U.S. Captain Tom Watson, who reflects on his long involvement in the Ryder Cup. Anita Draycott looks at the Ryder Cup venue, the luxurious Gleneagles Resort in Scotland, going beyond golf to explore the resort from all angles. While in Scotland, the writers can’t resist imbibing in some of the wonderful single-malt whiskys produced there, and GMN editor Jeff Wallach shoulders the burden at the tasting of a lifetime. And there’s plenty more. The Grain readers can enter to win a trip to Casa de Campo or a Myrtle Beach weekend getaway with Natalie Gulbis.
“Our content continues to resonate with readers who are looking for something other than the same old muddy beat-up balata of golf writing,” says GMN Managing Partner Jeff Wallach. “And our readership continues to grow. The email send of our PGA Championship issue was viewed by more than 450,000 readers.”
GMN partners with 35+ golf associations in the U.S. and Canada, which distribute the publication directly to members. The Grain delivers fresh content about golf’s major tournaments and the golf lifestyle in a unique digital format to 1.9 million readers through its golf association partners and partnerships with advertisers such as Shotzoom, makers of leading golf GPS app GolfShot; and National Golf Management, which owns and operates some of the best golf courses in Myrtle Beach. The Ryder Cup issue is available now.
Golf Media Network produces a multi-platform portfolio of golf content-including The Grain, Golf Road Warriors, and TheAposition.com-and features work by the world’s best golf and travel writers. The term “The A Position” refers to the best place a golfer can land his tee shot. On the web, it refers to the site readers will want to land on for great golf and travel journalism.
