Club Exposure Through NBC Sports Next will Help Wolf Creek Expand Footprint, Rounds and Revenue
ORLANDO, Fla. – NBC Sports Next today announced a new partnership with Wolf Creek Golf Club in Mesquite, Nev., connecting this desert club with GolfNow’s industry-leading, tee-time distribution platform and complementing its previously established operations technology agreement.
By expanding its existing technology partnership with NBC Sports Next by joining the tech leader’s tee-time marketplace, Wolf Creek will quickly begin to improve its efforts to grow both its footprint and stellar reputation around the globe. The club will benefit from additional elements that comprise the GolfNow Platform, including a white-label booking engine and a showcase to the millions of golfers who regularly use GolfNow 24/7 to search for and book tee times online.
“It’s important that we continue to harness all the momentum that golf has gained recently,” said Trent Chapman, General Manager and Director of Golf at Wolf Creek Golf Club. “For a course like ours, the exposure provided by GolfNow will be key to generating new customers and capturing all the new interest in the game.”
Ranked among the best courses in Nevada for the last six years and counting by GolfPass reviewers, Wolf Creek Golf Club is mentioned in the same breath as the best bucket-list courses in the U.S. For golfers who want real desert, making the 80-minute drive from Las Vegas to Mesquite is well worth the drive. The challenging 18-hole design features true desert canyons, an abundance of desert wildlife and fantastic features, including a second tee box that rises 11 stories above the desert floor. In addition to critical acclaim, Wolf Creek has been a feature course on EA Sports Tiger Woods and the Rory McIlroy PGA Tour video game.
“We’re thrilled to expand our relationship with Wolf Creek with the addition of the GolfNow Platform,” said Dan Burquist, National Director of Sales, Golf, NBC Sports Next. “We’ve seen a shift in golfer preferences toward the conveniences that digital services can provide. Considering GolfNow’s reach and enhanced booking experience, you’ve got a winning solution to help the club grow rounds, revenue and their ever-growing customer base.”
