A new statewide study conducted by Radius Sports Group on behalf of the Wisconsin Golf Alliance shows golf in Wisconsin generates $6.44 billion in total economic impact, supports 56,595 jobs, and contributes $2 billion in wages, underscoring the industry’s dynamic role in Wisconsin’s economy and communities.
The game produced $3.37 billion in direct economic impact and returned $288 million in state and local taxes. Wisconsin’s golf industry surpasses the combined economic contributions of several of the state’s signature sectors - including craft beer, wine, local spirits, and Packers home games - which together generate nearly $5 billion.
