FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (April 11, 2003) - TravelGolf.com, publishers of the world's most read chain of online golf and travel publications, announced Friday that it will launch CanadaGolfer.com to anchor its already robust Canadian golf coverage. The Arizona-based publishing house will team with the Canadian Golf Tourism Alliance to promote and market the publication, which both entities believe has the potential to become the authoritative source on Canadian golf travel.

"We've been dedicated to the Canadian market for years by way of OntarioGolf.com and RockiesGolf.com. Moreover, MyrtleBeachGolf.com has targeted the Canadian reader since its inception in the late 1990s," said TravelGolf.com Publishing Director Doug Carey. "CanadaGolfer.com and our partnership with the CGTA gives us a chance to take our coverage to the next level."

To provide editorial direction, TravelGolf.com has appointed John Gordon as associate editor of the publication. Gordon has over 15 years experience writing and reporting on the Canadian golf scene, and is the former editor of Canada's Score magazine. Gordon was also the seminal force behind the resurrection of the Royal Canadian Golf Association's Golf Canada magazine.

"This is a major boon for not only golfers and readers, but the entire Canadian golf market as well," said Gordon. "Canada is a drive-in market for a significant portion of the U.S and the mild summers provide for optimum playing conditions."

CanadaGolfer.com will feature course reviews, travel features and resorts profiles, in addition to essential travel information like interactive maps, course guides, frequently asked questions, and transportation. CanadaGolfer.com is conveniently organized by province and is chock-full of breathtaking photography and useful information and statistics.

Publishing since 1995, TravelGolf.com/WorldGolf.com publications is a debt-free, profitable dot-com network that has successfully generated revenues through advertising, lead generation, tee times and private label golf packaging. The company's online publications have garnered international awards, including a Forbes "Best of the Web" Award for 2002 , and have received national recognition in Sports Illustrated , Golf Digest, Golf Magazine, GolfWeek and Turnstile's Golf and Travel Magazine.

TravelGolf.com, purveyor of the world's most content rich golf and travel publications, owns and operates 30 online publications including ScotlandGolf.com, OntarioGolf.com, MyrtlebeachGolf.com, MichiganGolf.com, LasVegasGolf.com, AustraliaGolf.com, GolfOhio.com, GolfCalifornia.com, GolfCarolina.com, PinehurstGolf.com, HiltonheadGolf.com, GolfFlorida.com and GolfArizona.com.
