Brookfield, WI – Oct 24, 2016 — Golf Pipeline, Inc. (“Golf Pipeline”), a leading golf tee time management company, announced Friday that it has signed a partnership agreement with CBS Sports Digital, a division of CBS Interactive. Golf Pipeline will continue to operate as a standalone entity with support and promotion from CBS Sports Digital to help further grow the Golf Pipeline business and the game of golf.
Golf Pipeline was created in 2012 to become a destination for golfers to book tee times, invite their friends to join a tee time, track their golf scores, and establish a USGA-compliant golf handicap®. Golf Pipeline has, over the past 4 years, become the third largest network of available golf course tee times serving over 1,100 golf courses.
