Why the golf industry largely supports permanent daylight saving time

The golf industry in the United States has expressed strong support for the permanent adoption of daylight saving time, a change that would end the traditional twice-a-year practice of changing clocks. This potential shift in federal timekeeping policy is currently being considered as the U.S. may be teeing up an end to the biannual time adjustments.

Advocates within the golf sector point to the extended evening daylight as a key economic and operational benefit, allowing courses to remain open for longer hours and accommodating more players after standard working hours. By eliminating the time changes, the industry anticipates a more stable scheduling environment that could boost overall participation and revenue.
