Top 6 risks for golf courses and country clubs
Preparation and keeping an eye on emerging risks in an ever-changing environment are key to success on and off the golf course. For example:
-
Impaired and inexperienced or underage drivers and passengers can increase the risk of golf carts tipping over or crashing into pedestrians.
-
On-site restaurants and banquet facilities have unique liquor liability and food safety concerns.
-
Severe weather can cause injury to players or considerable damage to a golf course, forcing it to shut down during repairs.
Golf courses and golf facilities property and safety trends
In 2022, 25% of accidents we saw at golf courses were related to slips, trips and falls. When limited to only bodily injury claims, slips/trips/falls accounted for 44% of general liability claims.1 With amenities and activities extending beyond the greens, golf courses face a wide variety of risks.
To stay ahead of evolving risks, Travelers engages the PGA TOUR to explore emerging risks and trends impacting golf courses and golf facilities.
