Golfsmith enters South Carolina

Columbia, S.C. -- Golfsmith International is opening its first South Carolina store, in the state capital of Columbia, with a grand opening celebration on May 3 to May 5.



The 23,500-sq.-ft. store is part of Golfsmith's aggressive growth strategy in the Carolinas. Adding to its current Raleigh location, the company recently expanded with new stores in Charlotte and Greensboro — with another new store opening in Myrtle Beach later this spring.



The Columbia store has four high-tech golf simulators and an expansive indoor putting green that enable customers to experience the latest equipment. The new location also features GolfTEC, a state-of-the-art in-store improvement center, with PGA teaching professionals and certified coaches to help golfers improve their games.



"Our new Columbia store is nestled between two iconic Southeast golf destinations — Myrtle Beach and Augusta — with some of the state's most popular courses nearby. It's a great location for establishing our presence in South Carolina," said Sue Gove, Golfsmith International president and CEO.
