TaylorMade Golf introduces platform for anyone to contribute ideas to grow the game, go to www.hackgolf.org

ORLANDO, Fla. — TaylorMade Golf pledged $5 million Tuesday evening to fund the collection and examination of new ideas to foster the growth of the game of golf.
This five-year effort will be conducted under the umbrella of something called Hackgolf (hackgolf.org).

TaylorMade chief executive Mark King – hosting a symposium that included PGA of America president Ted Bishop, National Golf Foundation chief executive Joe Beditz and noted business advisor Gary Hamel – announced the funding at the end of a presentation and discussion that lasted almost an hour and a half.
