Uber is swinging this spring. For avid golfers, the ridesharing app is introducing Uber Golf, a ridesharing service that helps get these golf players move around the golf course.
They are doing this in partnership with Topgolf. Topgolf is a sports entertainment complex that features high-tech and climate-controlled driving range bays, wherein players must hit micro-chipped golf balls at giant, scoring targets across an outfield.
Topgolf is designed for every skill level, and also features a restaurant and a bar with music, making it accessible for avid and social golfers alike.
“As spring has sprung and millions are swapping skis for clubs, we’re excited to introduce the launch of Uber Golf, a new seasonal offering that helps get casual and avid golfers alike to and from the course. And, for those who prefer the driving range to the greens, Uber’s new partnership with Topgolf is the perfect way to practice those swings,” Uber told Ridesharing Forum.
Uber Golf is available for access via the Uber app. Aside from moving you across the golf courses, it also includes the option to reserve a ride for up to four players with their clubs.
You can reserve your rides for up to three months in advance, “so you can lock in those tee times and focus more on your backswing, and less on how to get there,” Uber added.
Here’s how Uber Golf works. First, you book ahead. Uber Golf belongs to Uber Reserve, which is why you can reserve your rides up to 90 days in advance.
To select your ride, tap the Uber Golf tile on the Uber official app and reserve an UberX, which caters up to two guests with two club sets. Or, if you are more in the group, use UberXL, catering to up to four guests with four club sets.
