Ohio State Fans Will Get a Chance To Play Golf at Ohio Stadium
April 17, 2024 — Upper Deck Golf is hitting the upper decks at Ohio Stadium, home of the Ohio State Buckeyes, in Columbus, Ohio, April 17 to 21 for a great weekend of golf and an experience unlike any other. Don’t miss the chance to play golf as it has NEVER been played before! And the best part is participation in Upper Deck Golf events helps support Upper Deck Golf’s official charity: Stand Up To Cancer.
Upper Deck Golf offers the opportunity to play a round of golf inside iconic stadiums including hitting shots from the upper deck inside professional sports stadiums like Ohio Stadium, Wrigley Field in Chicago, Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, Dodger’s Stadium in Los Angeles, among many others. Participants enjoy a special experience while hitting tee shots from the stands throughout the stadium, down to custom greens on the field below. The fun starts and concludes at the clubhouse festival inside the stadium with great music, cold beers, food, and multiple golfing challenges.
Kelly Mulhern, Director of Venue Sales for The Ohio State University department of Athletics had this to say about Upper Deck Golf coming to OSU, “Upper Deck Golf provides an awesome way for us to activate our iconic stadium and it is an honor to be the first collegiate stop on the Upper Deck Golf tour. The entire Upper Deck Team has been a pleasure to work with and we are excited to hopefully have them return for many years to come.”
Upper Deck Golf was acquired in 2023 by Marc Bender and Adam Wachter, Managing Partners of Hidden Links, Golfpac Travel, Tee Times USA, and Go Play Golf gift card.
Bender and Wachter released a joint statement, “We are thrilled to be able to bring our unique entertainment and hospitality to The Ohio State University and all the great people of Columbus, Ohio.” They continued, “By traveling all over the country to the upper decks of the most famous sports stadiums across the United States, we will continue to do our best to introduce more people to this wonderful game while supporting Stand Up To Cancer through our charitable efforts. Our team that runs Upper Deck Golf day-to-day is awesome, and 2024 promises to be a transformative year.”
With Hall of Famer Sir Nick Faldo as an ambassador of Upper Deck Golf and Cleveland Golf as an exclusive equipment provider, participants are sure to have a top-notch experience. Cleveland Golf’s Wedges are some of the most highly regarded in golf, and they will ensure golfers are dialed in on shorter shots throughout each stadium. Golfers will have a chance to demo the latest Cleveland Golf Putters at Upper Deck Golf’s putting challenge, while Cleveland Golf’s newest line of Drivers will be featured at the long drive contest. The 54 hitting bays set up throughout each stadium will offer cutting edge equipment for men, women, and left-handed golfers.
In 2024, Upper Deck expects to have up to 25 events nationwide, located at some of the largest sports venues across the MLB, NFL, and at college stadiums. Upper Deck Golf offers corporate packages, as well as local, regional, and national sponsorships available for those enterprises looking to get their brand out in front of a new audience of golfers.
