Golf’s leading technology-driven coaching company recognized for sustained revenue growth from 2022 to 2025, underscoring more than a decade of consistent expansion
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — GOLFTEC, the world’s largest golf coaching and technology company, today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000, ranking No. 4,533 on the annual list of America’s fastest-growing private companies. This marks the 15th year — and 14th consecutive — GOLFTEC has earned a place on the prestigious list.
The Inc. 5000 recognizes companies not for a single standout year, but for sustained growth over time. This year’s honorees are ranked according to percentage revenue growth over a three-year period — from 2022 to 2025 — and must meet minimum revenue thresholds in both the first and final years of that window, along with Inc.’s full editorial review. Less than 100 companies have made the list even 10 times since 1982, and less than 20 have made more appearances than GOLFTEC.Collectively, the 2026 class generated a cumulative $385 billion in revenue in 2025. GOLFTEC posted 39% revenue growth over that three-year period.
GOLFTEC’s continued presence on the list reflects the durability of its coaching and technology model, built around certified personal coaches, data-driven instruction and a growing suite of at-home and in-center improvement tools. Since its founding in 1995, the company has expanded to more than 260 locations worldwide and employs more than 1,000 Certified Personal Coaches, making it the world’s largest employer of golf teaching professionals. GOLFTEC’s methodology has helped golfers improve their game by an average of seven shots and add more than 20 yards off the tee, across more than 14 million lessons taught. In 2023, the company acquired SKYTRAK, the leading consumer launch monitor and simulator, and 24/7 Golf, further connecting its in-center coaching with at-home practice.
“We set out to prove that golf improvement could be measured, not just felt, and this recognition is more proof that idea is still working. Growth for growth’s sake has never been the goal — it’s the byproduct of coaches and technology helping real golfers get better, year after year. Being named to the Inc. 5000 for the 15th year in a row is a reflection of that consistency, and of the trust hundreds of thousands of golfers have placed in our coaches. We’re excited to keep improving just like our players are.” — Joe Assell, CEO and Co-Founder, GOLFTEC
