Will YouTube Golf Form Its Own Professional Tour?

One of the interesting parts of YouTube golf is seeing professional golfers outside of the tournament atmosphere but still in a competitive environment where they can show off.

Good Good’s latest venture, Good Good Pros, is trying to take that concept to the next level.

Although details are limited, it looks like Good Good’s two best golfers, Brad Dalke and Sean Walsh, plan on challenging PGA Tour players under the Good Good umbrella instead of their own personal channels.

“GG Pros” will be the only space you to see Dalke and Walsh making videos together.

By the looks of it, we’ll be seeing Tour pros such as Akshay Bhatia and Sahith Theegala involved. And it seems like these matches will be taking place at courses like TPC Sawgrass and Pebble Beach, two of the best courses on the PGA Tour.

This kind of idea seems to be a launching point for what could be the next frontier of YouTube golf: an entire professional division for creators who play at a high level.

Could a pro division of YouTube golf work?

One of YouTube golf’s obsessions over the past couple of years has been pairing online personalities with professional golfers.

We’ve seen it countless times, especially with guys like Grant Horvat going up against Scottie Scheffler, Collin Morikawa, Justin Thomas and others.

In that series, Horvat gives them five shots. GG Pros will be straight up, no strokes.

This is the benefit of Good Good having two phenomenal players who are arguably the best YouTube golfers. Many believe Dalke, who won the Internet Invitational, could compete on the Tour.

So is GG Pros signaling an expanded roster where players can compete against Tour pros and potentially each other in more formal events?

Could it eventually be its own professional league?

There are hundreds of pro golfers who can’t quite make it on Tour for whatever reason. Many of them would be highly entertaining to watch going up against the established pros but it would be even more entertaining to see them battle each other for the right to play in bigger tournaments.

Fans are dying to see guys like Dalke and Walsh in “real” events so why not open up that possibility?

I would watch.

That could be a chapter of YouTube golf we haven’t discovered yet—creating a whole league of content creators who are good enough to challenge the pros.

And wouldn’t it be natural for those events to be a gateway for sponsor invites into lower-tier Tour events? Win a tournament, get a start in a fall tournament.

If Horvat can be invited to a Tour event, there are better players who deserve those sponsor invites even more.

We’re not talking about signature events or anything. This would just be opposite-field tournaments or lower-tier tournaments that already use sponsor invites to drum up interest.

I think this pro division segment of YouTube golf would be more interesting than the Creator Classics where you have a few great golfers playing with relative hackers.

Good Good continues to make moves

You’ll be forgiven if you can’t keep up with the deluge of Good Good news over the past few months.

There’ve been the launch of Good Good Girls, the sponsorship of a Tour event taking place next fall and the announcement of the Good Good Tour where GG players will compete for equity in the company based on results in their four majors. Oh, and an investment in TGL.

Add GG Pros to the list.

What do you think of this channel? Is a sign of a YouTube golf “pro division” in the making?
