Golftattoo Group, a great experience in the world of golf

Golftattoo Group started out as a simple online golf information site, almost exclusively devoted to news, reporting and interviews about amateur and professional competitions.

Shortly after its foundation, Golftattoo became the leader of golf audiences in Portugal and the logical consequence was media partnerships with the Portuguese Golf Federation, PGA Portugal, the European Tour, the Ladies European Tour and the newspaper Público.

It is all this knowhow that Golftattoo will offer to WCGC and there could have been no better start than the speed with which it was possible to draw up the national calendar for 2020, using its excellent relationship with the golf course directors in Portugal.

WCGC Portugal is approved by the Portuguese Golf Federation and in 2020 we will have five qualifying tournaments and one National Final before the World Final in Cascais”, explained Pedro Castelo Branco, CEO of Golftattoo.
